Former milestone at Compton
Image: © Richard Law Taken: 30 Aug 2022
A much-abused milestone, with its plates missing, which dates from the time that the road was turnpiked in the 19th century. The next one to the west is Image, which is also somewhat dilapidated. After that, the next one is in rather better condition, and is at Image; there are several more in the verge on the way out to Bridgnorth.
