Milestone by the old A59 The stone was once by the Skipton to Knaresborough turnpike, which later became the A59. Now marooned on one of the loops of old road.

Old and new roads Looking downhill along the A59 [left], with the old road to the right. This section leading east from Bolton Bridge used to be a winding and tortuous ascent, but the road was re-engineered in the 1970's. Still a hazardous road with sections of three lane, whilst North Yorkshire Police are often here waiting for speeders.
