Redcliff Gate from Worle
Mile 4

Curiously, there appear to be no milestones at all between Congresbury (12 miles from Bristol) and St Georges (17 miles from Bristol), either on the ground or marked on any Ordnance Survey map, past or present. Indeed, the majority of the milestones on this route between Bristol and Congresbury are marked on the 1887 OS map with mileages to those two destinations, and make no mention of Worle at all.

National Grid Reference: 353275, 169875

Location: Weston Road, Long Ashton, at the junction with Wild Country Lane.

Date recorded: Thursday, 07 February 2008

Type of milestone: Iron Plate on Stone

Notes: The iron plate is pristine, and is therefore probably a replacement.
