Milestone on Chester Road, Rossett
This milestone records that it is 5 miles to Wrexham and 6 miles to Chester, and significantly the plate bears the legend 'Wrexham District'. The Ordnance Survey schedule for the First Geodetic Levelling 1840-1860 records a bench mark on a mile stone at this location, but there is no sign of the mark on this stone. Wrexham District only came into existence in 1894, so it seems likely that the district council decided to modernise all their milestones and replaced the early one with this one. The 1880 O.S. map shows 'M.S./B.M.51.5', the 1900 map shows 'M.S./B.M.51.5' with the 'Meth. Chap.' recently built nearby, but without a bench mark, and the 1915 map shows 'M.S.' (no BM) and the 'Meth. Chap.' with a 'B.M.50.9.' This seems to confirm that the milestone was replaced between 1900 and 1915. For the bench mark on the former chapel see Image

Bench mark on the corner of Chapel Lane
This bench mark is on the corner of the former Methodist chapel facing Chester Road at the corner with Chapel Lane. The chapel was built in 1882 and gained its bench mark after 1900, when I think the nearby early milestone and bench mark were replaced by a new stone and iron plate. See Image

Who are Ewe?
Not sure if this friendly crittur is a Texel Sheep, but it did puzzle me initially because I could see a little bit of dog and cow in there!
