On the south side of the A58, east of Baitings reservoir, the Halifax 7 stone is set well down into the tarmac pavement. But the unusual shape of these Rochdale, Halifax and Ealand turnpike 18C stones can be seen. It is Grade II listed 407766. TW Hanson in his 'The History of Halifax' mentions this road and the milestones.
