  4. BettyL - it means that marker is 27 miles from Uttoxeter.

    Many old roads and canals in England have them still, often buried in the hedgerow now, or with somebody's garden wall built around them.

  5. That's why I love this site. Every photograph is a milestone! This one took me into all the English literature I've read. Beautiful.
