At Wilkieston on the A71, the wall surrounding the house has been built up since 2014 when the last photograph of this milestone was posted. The stone is typical of many in this area being a quadrant with a raised band on which a legend would have been painted. The legend would have been Edinburgh 9/Glasgow 33.
