Surveyed by the Milestone Society. One of four Telford tollhouses of this design still to be seen north of the border on the Edinburgh road, now A7. This one is at the south end of Langholm at Townfoot. It has the typical castellated protruding front with windows giving good views in both directions. This tollhouse has been slightly modernised in that it has lost its central chimney.
