Old milestone, Doncaster Road, High Melton
At the east end of High Melton on the unclassified road between Sprotbrough and Barnburgh. For 40 years it was seen with only the top few inches showing. After roadworks it was reset although it is broken just below present ground level. Part of the legend 'From/Wentworth' has eroded away Houſe also has its e missing. From the 1720s Thomas Watson-Wentworth, later 1st Marquis of Rockingham, had miles marked on the various routes from Wentworth, sometimes on trees, building or convenient stones. From 1750 he had stones set up. This one is on his route to the Great North Road north of Doncaster.
