Description

This is a milestone located approximately 5 metres to the west of Neno's House, dating from the early to mid 19th century. It is made of granite and has a triangular shape with two round-headed faces on the front. The inscriptions were illegible during the survey in December 1987, but it likely once read: "30/Miles/Exeter" and "4/Miles/Torrington". This milestone is part of a series along the B 3220.
