Description

The post features inscriptions on all four sides, clearly marked with good lettering and hands indicating directions. The inscriptions read: i) Pennystone ii) Huddersfield 6 miles, 3 miles to Honley 2 miles iii) Holmfirth iv) Jo:n Hoyle 2 miles, Constable Tho:s Bothomley, Surveyor 1738. Additionally, there is a protective iron fence surrounding the milestone.
