Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Milestone, Tubbenden Lane. Grade II listed milestone dating from 1779. Inscribed on it (although only just visible due to being repainted, presumably as part of a battle against graffiti) is "XV miles from London Bridge" with the date 1779. The listing particulars suggest that it is situated on the New Cross Turnpike of 1718, but although Tubbenden Lane is clearly an old road (it appears on the early 19th century Ordnance Survey map of the region), it wasn't on any direct route to or from anywhere, so it's not clear why it held any significance as a turnpike route.
For a picture with more context, see 1120935. Postscript: now restored - see 1255526. |
