| Description |
English: One of a series of milestones on the A57 road near Rixton in Cheshire, between Warrington in Cheshire, and Irlam in Greater Manchester. From the style of lettering, possibly an early 19th century stone probably erected by the Warrington and Lower Irlam Turnpike Trust (this trust was also called the Manchester Road Trust and was only responsible for about 8 miles of road). By the 1820s, many trusts were using cast iron mileposts so it likely dates from around 1810. |
