http://www.crossingthepennines.co.uk/locationhistory.html

Crossing the Pennines - heritage trail. The Yorkshire Colne Valley lies in the southern Pennines, roughly 20 miles equidistant from Leeds and from Manchester. Routes between towns in Yorkshire and Lancashire pass through the Standedge gap, from Halifax, Huddersfield, Wakefield, York to Manchester, Oldham, Rochdale, Chester. The tracks were in such poor condition that in 1555, wanting increased trade and therefore tax-take, Bloody Mary passed an Act of Parliament making local parishes (or townships in the...

http://www.crossingthepennines.co.uk/aboutus.html

Crossing the Pennines - heritage trail. The Milestone Society is a national registered charity, founded in 2001 to encourage people to care about our wayside heritage which is fast disappearing. We wanted to tell people more about their forebears who made or used these routes, so our volunteers led a group of local community organisations in establishing the Crossing the Pennines Heritage Trail, which showcases the travel and transport history that shaped the West Riding. You can also tweet about it.

What about a Heritage Trail along the Yorkshire Colne Valley, from Slawit to Marsden, we asked, back in summer 2014? Lots of history of travel and waymarking, from Blind Jack's 1770s first Turnpike from Wakefield to Austerlands, a Guide Stoop, a Roman milestone, an estate Boundary Marker, three Brayshaw and Booth Milestones of the 1890s to canal milestones and to the Stanza Stone on Pule Hill.

The Milestone Society interviews. Connie Swann. We asked member Connie Swann:. WHAT DO YOU GET OUT OF RESTORING MILESTONES? Then there was the postal service, The quarrels about distance covered in delivery so that erection of milestones soon became obligatory on the Turnpike Trusts. The milestones themselves are a delight from the beautifully designed to the naïve. How sensible to spell ‘Gloucester’ as ‘Gloster’. So why do I restore and replace milestones? Who used the turnpike roads?

From 1767, mileposts were compulsory on all turnpikes, not only to inform travellers of direction and distances, but to help coaches keep to schedule and for charging for changes of horses at the coaching inns. The distances were also used to calculate postal charges before the uniform postal rate was introduced in 1840. At the height of the turnpike era, there were 20,000 miles of roads with milestones.
