HolmeMoss
A6024

An awkward one, to photograph
It necessitated a turn round & a drive back to the summit, in order to pull up safely (knowing there was no traffic behind)

I'll admit I've never noticed this one before, particularly when on the bike, as I'm either head-bowed on the way up, or eyes streaming behind glasses/watching traffic on the descent😄

That's it folks, until Wednesday & Whitby


I hope some of enjoyed them

 

[And]

That's reasonably high, but I presume it does get a lot higher

Apologies for the thread diversion, but this photo was taken at the same time - it can't get much higher, the town centre was flooded as it was! Even Boris visited us (well, he used it as a TV opportunity)

Milepost
Bakewell Road (A6)
Derbyshire


Spotted at the last moment, due to foliage (trampled down by me), with a halt in the adjacent bus-stop

The distance has been erased for whatever reason

A load had the distances removed during the Second World War. In case of invasion, or in case of spy activity.

Some were even removed completely, to be replaced after the war.

@classic33

True, like signposts

@PeteXXX i had another look today and apart from taking some gardening tools I am going to just keep an eye on this one .

On the way home headed towards Finedon and found this benchmark in the stable block on the left before the old Frank Thomas buildings .

@biggs682 It's not on the other database. I looked to see if there was a pic to see whereabouts on the plinth it is. No joy so far!

 

[biggs682]

Must admit I had a quick look last night as I do remember seeing it somewhere

I'm on days-off Wed/Thurs, & there's a good chance that senior management & me are heading to Whitby for the day

We did indeed, with daughter (& father-in-law)

Sleights
Coach Road (A169)
I had spotted most of them on way up, & out of deference to wife didn't stop
Until into the village, at the bottom of Blue Bank

After turning off the A169, towards Ruswarp, (onto the B1410)
And, surprisingly it's somewhere I've never been!, I spotted another

I did like the adjacent road & railway bridges
Quite wonderful, but I didn't want to push my luck... until parked in Whitby!

We have a Frank Meadow Sutcliffe print of this view in the front parlour (always that name to me. given the age of the house; 121 years old)
