The condition of this West Riding CC milestone has deteriorated since 2019. It is in front of a house just north east of Mile End Avenue. Of the 9 milestones set up on this route in 1893/94 just 4 remain in situ and this one is the only one on the left travelling towards Thorne. Grade II listed 1314806.
