On the A6036, Carr House Road, Buttershaw. This is one of 615 milestones erected for the West Riding County Council in 1893/94. Over half still remain by the roadside. The casting was made by Brayshaw & Booth of Liversedge and fixed to a large backing stone. This post, half way between Bradford and Halifax needs repainting.
