Milepost

This is an ornate cast iron milepost, painted white with black lettering and details. It has a square base that supports a rear upright featuring a pointed arched head with mouldings, imposts, and a keystone. In front of the base is a low domed section with a round-headed front face, above which are two tall faces with pointed arched heads, each set at a 45-degree angle. The arches have raised mouldings.

Underneath the rear arch, the milepost reads 'Bridgend District'. The angled faces point in opposite directions, with one indicating 'To Pyle 5' and the other 'To Neath 7'. Beneath the round arch is the lettering 'London 188'. The square base has a raised border that includes 'Margam Parish' written in relief. A raised tablet at the bottom, which is unpainted, reads '1841'.
