Old milepost The Thirsk 7 milepost on the A170 is easy to spot on a wide verge opposite Scawton Moor Plantation. It is in line with a new fence across a field to a farm. The refurbishment done to the mileposts along this route in 2005 by Cleveland Corrosion at Staithes has stood up well to weathering and passing traffic. F Mattison & Co. Bedale, the foundry name inside the back lhs is where these posts were cast at the end of the 19C. This post is Grade II listed 1149192.

Old milepost This NRYCC milepost on the A170 is opposite a bungalow and the farm buildings of High Lodge. On its side of the road there is a footpath into Wass Moor Woods.

The foundry name where they were cast in the late 19C, F Mattison & Co. Bedale, is inside the lhs. Grade II listed 11911336.

Bungdale Head farm road At this point the road is also the line of a public footpath. On the right are outcrops of limestone, whilst to the left the ground drops rapidly into the narrow Waterfall Gill which is choked with trees and undergrowth. The name seems entirely inappropriate as the gill is completely dry.
