Description

Milestone, 1832, for the Doncaster and Selby Turnpike.

Magnesian limestone pillar of rectangular section with a gabled head. Inscribed on the side facing the road with “DONCASTER / 14 MILES / ASKERN 7 / SELBY 5 / YORK 20”, this still being discernible despite heavy weathering. The rear face is blank, the flanking sides each have a sunken panel as if to receive a metal plate, but with no evidence of fixing holes.

The recommended extent of the designation has been considered with reference to the powers provided by the Planning Act (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) 1990 under section 1 (5A), in this case invoking the powers under the Act to make it plain that the milestone has no listed curtilage.
