Woodhouse Cross
Apart from the incongruity of a motorcycle weighing over two tons, the crossroads is noteworthy for the stone direction marker. Each face has the name of a local village/town. The inscriptions are on the face corresponding to the direction of that locality. Ilsington is on the nearest face; to get there, turn through 180 degrees after reading the name and follow the road.
