Old milestone
On the bridge over the Ings Beck on the Denby Dale road out of Wakefield, A636, is this ancient stone plaque built into the wall. The eroded legends read as follows To Bretton () Miles/Holmfirth ( ) Do/Staley Bridge ( ) Do/Manchester ( ) Do. The mileages don't appear to have been inscribed so maybe they were painted on or had not been measured.
The blue plaque next to it notes the junction of two Turnpike roads but the style of the lettering on the stone may indicate it preceded the turnpike era. It is Grade II listed.

Blue plaque
The legend on the plaque shows that the two turnpike roads were fairly late additions to the turnpike era. Both were initially enacted well into the 19thC when many tollroads had already been operative for over half a century. The Ings had an especially short life of just over 30 years.
