Milestone by cycle path and A354
The stone reads Dorchester 3, Weymouth 5.
A354 Road

The A354 is a 53 mile long primary road that runs southwest between Salisbury and the coast at Weymouth and Portland. Formerly the main road from the Channel port towards London. Its route has barely changed in over two centuries, as can be seen with almost every 18th-century milestone still at the road’s edge, still readable at 60 mph.
