![Milestone, Sells Green. Milestone beside the A365. For a wider view [[1870624]]Milestones did not come into general use until the Turnpike Act of 1766 made them compulsory on turnpike roads, these roads were built by private enterprise under licence from the Government and maintained by tolls on those who used them. Before this Act milestones were put up occasionally, often as charitable acts and commemorations. Many Turnpike Act stones still exist. They are usually 2-3 ft high, with the initial letter or abbreviation of the nearest market town show on two faces, and the distance from it. by Maigheach-gheal – 11 April 2010](https://s3.geograph.org.uk/geophotos/01/87/06/1870631_ecc84d09_120x120.jpg)
