I was out walking this lunchtime, my usual midday exercise, and came across this little stone sign. I'd never noticed it before and must have passed the spot a hundred times! Anyway, I reckon that because the grass is so short and, basically dead because of the hot Summer, the sign was way more exposed than normal, in previous years I bet it would have been obscured by tall grass. Anyway, it made me think about what one of these old fashioned stone mileage signs would be called, "milestone" I guess, I wonder how old this one is and whereabouts in the centre of London 31 miles would actually be, time for some Googling!
