This milepost cast at the Mattison of Bedale foundry in the late 19C is now outside 17, Gypsy Lane in Nunthorpe. It has been moved from what is now A172 Dixon's Bank/Stokesley Road and is noted on the 1912 OS 6" map. NZ 5185 1541. All the other posts still in situ from this foundry are now painted black letters and hands on white but it is not known what was the original livery.
