Sovereign Boulevard is the main road from Dover to London, or at least it was until the motorway was built. Used many years ago by horse and cart this milestone showed the traveler they were 8 miles from Sittingbourne and 32 miles from London.
The milestone is in good condition with black plated mileage signs attached to the stone. On the rear of the stone is a cut bench mark that you may also visit in another category.
