Old milestone
Since the last photograph of this West Riding CC milestone which has lost its metal attachment, a new school has been built on the fields over the fence. It is near an Electricity sub-station. The left face had DONCASTER/4 MILES, the right face YORK/32¾ MILES/TADCASTER/23½ MILES/WAKEFIELD/16 MILES/LEEDS/23½ MILES/PONTEFRACT/10¼ MILES. TADCASTER & DONCASTER/ROAD/ADWICK/LE/STREET was on the top section. The foundry name Brayshaw & Booth of Liversedge would have been on the bevel. The place names were set at an angle to fit in the longest name, Pontefract.
