This West Riding CC milestone dating from 1893/94 is in desperate need of a complete strip down and repaint. It stands on the A6107 in front of No.417 Bradley Road just east of the A641 junction roundabout. It is one of about 350 that remain by the roadside out of 615 that were erected in 12 months by the family firm of Gill and Frank Stead of Mirfield all over the old West Riding.
