Old milestone
Looking towards the centre of Snaith along the A1041 by Brierley Close. This milepost was reset when the houses behind it were built after 2003. It was last painted by a Milestone Society member in 2016. Now leaning slightly and needing repainting. Of the few mileposts remaining on the 28.5 mile turnpike route Selby, Thorne and Bawtry, first enacted 1793, only this one and Selby 9 at East Cowick (SE 6619 2153) both in the old East Yorkshire, are of this design with an angled top. Grade II listed 1161892.

A shady spot for a sundial
I presume the sundial was placed before the cherry trees were planted?
