Bench mark on milestone
This nineteenth-century milestone is a Grade II listed structure and sits on the east side of the main road just north of Rhydd. The small indentation on top is the remains of an Ordnance Survey bench mark that possibly dates back to the First primary levelling of England & Wales in 1844. It was included on the Manchester to Gloucester levelling line, but appears to have been moved since then from a position shown on the 1884 map half a mile further south.
