Milestone in garden wall of Glenroyd
25-JAN-11
II
A milestone, dating from 1764. The stone is rectangular with a cambered head, and stands approximately 1m high. It is incorporated into the garden wall of Glenroyd. The milestone is painted white and is inscribed in Sans Serif capitals: 'ST / AUSTEL / IIIIi / TRURO / XVIII'. The lettering is picked out in black paint.
HISTORY: Milestones were erected in 1764 along the road from Grampound to Lostwithiel, by the St Austell and Lostwithiel Turnpike Trust. The stones were provided at a cost of 17 shillings each by Walter Treleavers, including delivery. The distances were calculated from the 8-mile stone at the end of the adjoining Truro Turnpike Trust, resulting in the half-mile distances to St Austell which is recorded on all the milestones in this group.
REASONS FOR DESIGNATION:
The milestone at Glenroyd is designated at Grade II for the following principal reasons:
Historic Interest: An intact milestone dating from 1764, which remains in its original position.
Group value: with the other listed milestones along the Grampound to Lostwithiel turnpike route.
