This is on the lock cottage by Old Hill Bridge, No 107 on the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal. There are very few signs around measuring distance in miles and furlongs* * A furlong is 220 yards (201 metres), or ten chains, and there are eight furlongs in a mile. Just to be clear, there are 4·97 furlongs in a kilometre. Got it? ;-)
