For quite some time now I have seen a whole bunch of milestones that look like a traditional turnpike road. But we can find absolutely no trace of it online. Inspired by the Team at https://www.hiddenwiltshire.com/ we decided to solve this mystery once and for all.

Usual notices:
1. We are not historians. We enjoy researching and learning, and with that we enjoy sharing our journeys with you. That said, sources for information often listed below with credits.
2. Errors. Whilst we make every attempt to not include any errors, research, and piecing stories together from dozens of sources sometimes leads to one or two. I will note here if any are found:

a. I think I said XX then "Two two" on the last milestone. I meant II.
