Going south
An 18th century (I would guess) milestone in Markyate, Hertfordshire. Its location is now the A5183, a fast road built in the 1950s. I am not sure, therefore, whether or not this stone is set in its original position. However, the new road follows the old road, Watling Street (the one the Romans had built). It is clear that the milestone must at least be near to its original position. Mitakon Speedmaster at F0.95.
