Old Milestone in great condition on the A168, this was the Southbound carriage way of the old A1 Great North Road. Milestone is located behind the highways depot just to the South of the A6055 junction to Minskip. Inscriptions read: - Ferrybridge & Boroughbridge Road / Boroughbridge / Boroughbridge 1 Mile / Wetherby 11 1/4 Miles / Aberford 18 1/2 Miles / Ferrybridge 28 Miles / Doncaster 43 Miles WR casting. Unsure as to whether this MS is listed but I would presume that it is. Edit: The Milestone Society has informed me that this is not a listed MS due to it being moved from its original position during the construction of the Roundabout at the A6055 junction.

Passing through this field while walking from Grafton to the A168, and onto Boroughbridge

My journey was intended to follow this footpath from Grafton to Minskip. Beyond this field lies the A168, which used to be the A1. Just beyond that is the new A1(M) which has cut the right of way in two, and has not been restored. This entailed a long detour up the A168 to Boroughbridge to cross the motorway and then follow the A6055 to Minskip - be warned!

Seen from side of A168

Set back from the A168 south of Boroughbridge.

The photo position would once have been in the central reservation of the A1 dual carriageway, but now the road has been upgraded to motorway and has been rebuilt some 200m further west. The old southbound carriageway now serves as the A168, a road which consistently grows in length and now reaches as far south as A1[M] junction 45 beyond Wetherby.

Happy hens entertaining visitors to the farmshop and egg restaurant

OS Flush Bracket 11569 is set into the road facing wall of the farmhouse, and it remains in very good condition.

This is an area of new housing on the west side of Horsefair in Boroughbridge. According to the OS benchmark database there was a cutmark in this vicinity on the previous building, which is described as a "depot". The mark has been destroyed.

The benchmark is cut into the north-east facing wall of the pub.

There is a benchmark cut into the north-east facing wall of the pub, which is the gable end.
