Restoration of Milestones

Published 1 July 2020

Kevin Price has completed the repainting of the milestones in the Parish.
The Parish Council has taken on responsibility for the 6 milestones on the A515 & A513 from Staffordshire County Council Highways Dept.
Advice was taken from the ‘Milestones Society’ on the correct treatment and paints to be used.
The undergrowth around the ancient stone turnpike milestone in Manor Park has been cleared by Kings Bromley Historians.
Information on the milestones can be found on the Historians’ website: kbhistorians.btck.co.uk
I think we can all agree that Kev has done a great job, even with a splint on his hand.
Attached is a ‘before and ‘after’ picture of one of the milestones.
