The milestone probably dates from the earlier calibration of the turnpike route from Machynlleth to Tywyn in the late C18.
A very simple milestone consisting of a squared slab of stone with an angled top, whitewashed, and carrying the incised lettering Mach / 2 M. Below, a benchmark.
Included as one of a series of simple turnpike milestones on the roads running W and N of the Pont-ar-ddyfi.
