Note Regarding Software: This database was compiled using an Apple iPad and the PAGES app.  Opening the blue text links should take you to the respective location on Google Maps.  If you experience problems in opening these links it is likely to be because you are not running the latest versions of the software.  If necessary, the respective GPS coordinates can be copied and entered into Google Maps or Google Earth instead. 

All links in the document have been checked and are functioning correctly at the time of issue. (1st June, 2025)

The software versions used are as follows:  

iPad 5th Generation running iOS version 14.4.2               PAGES Version 5.1(6569)          Google Maps Version (25.20.0)

This document may be freely used and copied towards promoting interest in, and the preservation of our historic milestones.  

I believe the layout and presentation to be superior in that it utilises the latest technology to accurately record the exact locations in GPS decimal degree coordinates rather than the usual Ordnance Survey Grid which is pretty useless in respect of accuracy. It is hoped that others will use this format to add their input and effort to finding and recording the many milestones across the land. It is said that there are just two in the Elan Valley; can you find more?  This link is a good starting point: OS map  of Wales  1888 - 1915.

Please note that Google Maps now allows one to add photos in Street View, and many of our milestones are deserving of a decent photograph to supplement the often poor quality images in Street View.  If you have good photos of any milestones, including the ones above, please add them to Google Maps

It is my intention to publish a guide here to explain the method of finding these milestones, The majority can be found by using what exists online, but those elusive to this method require physical searching.
