Mis-aligned milestone on the Dauntsey Road
This poor milestone is not only missing the important details, but has also been given a bit of a nudge along the way. It would have said 'Sutton Benger 2' originally but then changed to say 'Malmesbury 5, Sutton Benger 2' in the early 1900s. By the 1920s it now read 'Malmesbury 5, Chippenham 6'. Today it is sadly mute.

The top of a toppling milestone
This milestone has been knocked about and is leaning at a pronounced angle now. The top surface bears a rivet benchmark (the grey, circular object at the right of the stonework). See https://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm147193 for the entry in the Benchmark Database and Image] for a wider view.
