In the wall surrounding Sainsbury's supermarket on the A640, New Hey Road, at Salendine Nook is this distinctive old guidestone pointing the way to Lindley and Lockwood. It has weathered during the last few years and the inscription is not as clear as it was. There is a bench mark near the top of the left-hand side. It may date from the late 18th century.
