In Norland south east of Sowerby Bridge on Clough Road near the church. This stone is well looked after. The face to the wall is inscribed To/Sowerby/2+M. To/Ealand/2+M and To/Halifax/2+M are on the other two faces. Rather more than 2 miles each way to the four towns. + perhaps means add on your own distance!
