Old milestone
This milestone is on Doncaster Road in Darfield, just east of Nanny Marr Road. It is slightly higher up the hill than the European War Memorial. On the left face is inscribed PON/12M/Houghton. That is the very old packhorse route that would have forded the River Dearne, now bridged, to reach Houghton, then north to eventually arrive at Pontefract.

Old milestone
The front face of the very old milestone on the hill in Darfield is inscribed DON/10M/?IXX. What does that mean? The right face had something now indecipherable with PON/12M near the base. The very narrow paved lane leads down to the River Dearne and is part of the packhorse route from Sheffield to Pontefract. This stone is Grade II listed 1315019.
