Old milestone plaque
This stone plaque is on the northern parapet of the bridge over the canal in Swinton on the A6022. The bridge was rebuilt in 1889 and 1906. From the style of lettering the plaque may date from that period. Wentworth House is now called Wentworth Woodhouse and was built in the middle of the 18C by the 1st Marquis of Rockingham, a prominent Whig politician. At 606 feet long it has the longest frontage of any house in England.
