Description

This is a 19th-century milepost made of gritstone and cast iron. It has a triangular section and a round head. The inscriptions on the head read 'Dudleyhill Killinghall and Harrogate Road Stainburn'. The left face indicates 'Bradford 15 miles', while the right face shows 'Killinghall'. The iron plate is secured to the stone support with two bolts through the head.
