Milestone and section of track belonging to former granite tramway from Haytor
quarry to Stover Canal. 1820s. Granite. Low granite post with roughly shaped head,
carved with the figure 6 which represents the number of miles from the canal. About
1½ metres in front of it a short stretch of granite trackway. The Granite Tramway
was opened in 1820 for horse-drawn wagons carrying granite from Haytor quarries to
the Stover Canal, whence it was taken by barge to the port of Teignmouth.
