Goodmanham Dale

Old milestone A typical 3 step mounting block style milestone from the Beverley to Kexby Bridge (River Derwent) tollroad, 1764 to 1881. This stone was unlawfully removed from the verge and placed at Arras Farm. It was spotted by a rambler and the Highways Agency insisted on its return to the roadside. It was set the wrong way round but corrected by the East Riding Highways Unit. It is just west of Hessleskew Lane. There is a benchmark at the back of the top of the first step.
