Milestone repainted and relettered by the Milestone Society (see Notes) and, on this day, officially unveiled.
Beneath "Yarmouth" there are two panels, both horizontal, which appear to have been filed flat. If a distance was shown here, why is not in the same style / format as the others? Early photograph, yet to be traced, may show the milestone as originally lettered.
