Description

The milepost at Lonsdale Farm is an early 19th-century structure made of cast iron. It has a triangular shape and features raised cast letters on its sides indicating the distances to Spalding (6 miles) and Deeping St James (5 miles), with "London 94" displayed on the top. It is important to note that Lonsdale Farm itself is not a listed building.
