Eyam, Derbyshire County Council Guidepost
A Derbyshire County Council (DCC) cast iron guidepost in the small village of Eyam in Derbyshire (UK).
These cast iron guideposts generally appeared in large number after the classification of roads (A, B etc) in 1922.
I don't think though that the destinations on the fingers are the originals from when the post was installed in 1929.
