Description

Guidepost at Keybridge, dating from around the mid-19th century. It features a tall square section shaft topped with a large square cap that has a pyramid top. The directions to Bodmin, Camelford, and St Tudy are marked in upper case lettering on three of the four faces of the cap. There is a wrought iron shaft on top of the cap, which may have been used for direction pointers.
