What is recorded here
Milestone SE of Yarnbury Castle marks a forgotten road junction in Wiltshire, preserved as a scheduled monument rather than a polished tourist trap. The stone likely guided travellers past Yarnbury Castle when routes changed without warning. It still stands because someone once believed the journey mattered enough to measure.
The National Heritage List for England records Milestone SE of Yarnbury Castle as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
