One side facing northwest is embossed with 'Coggeshall 1', while the side facing northeast shows 'Braintree 6'. Above these inscriptions, 'Coggeshall' is embossed on an inclined surface facing north, and 'Colchester 10' appears on a vertical surface above, featuring a segmental head. The mile-post is mounted on a triangular oak post set into a recessed area at the southern edge of the footway. It measures 0.42 metres in width and stands 0.74 metres above the tarmac. The mile-post is also marked on the Ordnance Survey map.
