Faint arrows
The top of the 9th milestone from Bristol at Lye Cross also had a pivot benchmark on its top. However, the years have not been kind and the arrows are difficult to see. See http://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm28984 for the entry in the Benchmark Database and Image] for a location view.

Slow down!
The A38 at Lye Cross as it heads steeply up towards Redhill. To the far left of shot is a forlorn looking milepost; sadly the plate is now missing but it would have told the traveller that it is nine miles to Bristol and seven to Cross. A pivot benchmark can just still be made out on it - see Image

Farmland near Lye Cross
A hedge zigzags between fields of oilseed rape, seen from a little stretch of the A38 followed by the Two Rivers Way. The LDP then crosses this foreground field, away to the left of the camera. The nearest wood up the hill behind is Bottenham Coppice.
