Two signposts on Crookstone Hill, on the contemporary wooden one is written “footpath” on the much older stone post the inscription is “HOPE CROSS” this is carved in a semicircular fashion around the right hand side of the square hole. At one time perhaps the hole held a stone or wooden pointer as the hole points in the direction of Hope Cross about 970 yards away.
