What is recorded here
Milestone or milepost in Oakleypark has itself been moved back from the road. A lovely indignity for a stone employed to tell everyone where they are: ‘And where do you belong?’ ‘Well, that’s become a sensitive subject.’
Freestanding rough hewn limestone milestone, extant 1908. Repositioned, ----. Set back from line of road.
A milestone making a pleasing, if largely inconspicuous visual statement in Clane Road.
