Milk churn stand at the end of the road
The road to Hystfield end here and in the days when milk was collected in churns this is where the dairy would have collected them from with the stand on the right. Both a bridleway and footpath continue from this spot.

The road through Hystfield
Two small pointers showing public footpaths may be seen, one on either side of the road. In the middle distance is a slightly larger sign showing the route down a side-road to the start of a public bridleway.

Milk churn stand
Now redundant due to the introduction of bulk tank storage and bulk tanker lorries, milk churn stands were once very common. Even though it was back in the 1970s when they became defunct there are still many to be found in the countryside. This one is at the end of a no through road at Hystfield. A bridleway can be seen in the background and there is a footpath continuing to the south.

Milk Stand top of Hystfield Lane
My father, Alf Beared who worked for Troughton's built that in the 1950s. The original one was wood and it stood inside the gate on the right, at the edge of the lane.
