Milestone'

GV II
A milestone, dating from 1836, in stone. The milestone is triangular on plan, and has a flat top with a metal pin inserted into the head. It is set against the garden wall of the house known as Milestone. The milestone is painted white and is inscribed: B / 7 / St A / 4; the lettering is picked out in black paint. There is a benchmark incised at the upper left corner of the right-hand face of the stone.

HISTORY: The St Austell and Lostwithiel Turnpike Trust was established by Act of Parliament in 1761. Between 1835 and 1836, the Trust built a new road linking the southern route through the county with the central route from Launceston to Bodmin. The new route was almost eight miles long, with seven milestones.
