The milestone was erected by the Turnpike Trust on the road from Tremadoc to Pwllheli sometime after 1810, marking this important stage, the crossing of the Afon Dwyfor.
A single slab of 7.5mm thick slate, 46cm wide and approximately 75cm above ground, with the top corners angled, inscribed with deeply cut lettering reading TO / PWLLHELI / 7 .M. / TREMADOC / 6.M. / CRICCIETH 1 1/2M.
Included as one of the series of milestones on the southern road along the Lleyn peninsula. It now stands within the conservation area, of group value with Pont Llanystumdwy, and a reminder that the turnpike road originally ran through the village.
