Full Description
All three milestones along this route are heavily weathered, with no surviving inscriptions. However, although (S1) states that the second edition OS map marks them all as "defaced", the first edition OS map shows a milestone marking Yarmouth 12 miles and Norwich 14 miles being positioned here.
The three milestones are of two different types, with this milestone being a square pillar.
