This is a replacement post, shown here being unveiled on 16th May 1980.

There is also another milepost plaque at Fradley, which is about Milepost 28/64 near bridge 55 (described on the plaque as “East of Handsacre”). Unfortunately both the replacement milepost and the plaque were vandalised. The milepost was repaired, but a new plaque was made and placed here instead of by the milepost.
