One of the 615 milestones erected for the West Riding County Council in 1893/94. Over half are still in situ over all the old West Riding. In summer this stone is completely hidden amongst the bracken so has escaped the notice of the person who painted the next two stones eastwards. The post 3 miles away is missing and the road enters Nottinghamshire after another ½ mile.
