As part of the Millennium celebrations, 1000 Millennium Mileposts were
erected around the National Cycle Network. There are four different
types of Millennium Mileposts. This milestone marker type was one of
the first post designs to be commissioned. It was designed by John
Mills, and his piece was entitled The Fossil Tree. The post takes the
form of an abstract tree with relief imagery of fossils depicting the
passage of time from early primitive creatures to the ultimate demise
of fossil fuel driven technology. Wales, Scotland and N/Ireland had
their own commissioned posts, and most posts seemed to have received a
different colour scheme.
This milepost is sited on National Route 1 along The Street at
Preston, Kent.
