Metal plate attached to concrete post by the UC road (was A38), in parish of CATSHILL (BROMSGROVE District), Lydiate Ash, by "Hazlewood" No. 658, on "Old Birmingham Road"; now by-passed, backing on to trimmed garden hedge, on East side of road. This 1930s 'Bradley' milestone appears to have been repainted at the same time as the adjacent house which is currently for sale! The legend is CCW rather than WCC because equipment with the designation WCC was often 'acquired' by Warwickshire County Council. (update on this https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6097962 ) Inscription reads:- : A38 / WORCESTER 16. / 10 BIRMINGHAM. / C.C.W. Milestone Society National ID: WO_WOBM16
