Sign post. 1743. Gritstone. Approximately 1.20 metres high, square
section. Inscriptions: east face - 'The Road To (Br)adford ( ) Miles. 1743'
with hand pointing south above. North face - 'The Road To Otley ( ) Miles'
with hand above pointing to west, 'The Road to Knaresborough ( ) Miles' with

River Wharfe at Castley carried the main traffic to Bradford from Harrogate.
It was probably defaced when the ford went out of use, late C19.
