How far from Waskerley to Rowley?
How far from Waskerley to Rowley?
Milestone on the Waskerley Way NCN path no.7. I suspect this was made to look older than it is, as the path was originally a railway line. I do not know when the line closed, but the work to restore the line as a foot and cycle path took place in 1991-2, which is possibly when the milestone dates from. Thanks to Oliver Dixon for additional information.
