Milepost on MacFarlane Road

Image: © Richard Sutcliffe Taken: 10 Jun 2019

This milepost is located on what was at one time the main road from Aberfoyle and Balfron to Glasgow. MacFarlane Road is now a quiet side street, as it is by-passed by the A81 Milngavie Road to the west. It is Category C listed [http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB48601] and dates from 1861. This milepost was photographed in 2012 [https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6060939], but is now looking a bit rusty compared with then.
