Sixpenny Handley: finger-post finial detail
Sixpenny Handley: finger-post finial detail
A close-up of the finial of the finger-post (see ST9917 : Sixpenny Handley (that’s 6 old pence)), giving location and grid reference details.

The village name is locally famous for being abbreviated to '6d Handley' on many old signposts and I think this finial has been restored heavily over the years, perhaps owing to sporadic thefts.
