An old milestone, attractively marked, abuts a cottage in Axminster Road. This is probably the most significant remaining feature of this kind within the conservation area, and a reminder of the former historic importance of this road through the village. Photograph shows triangular white painted stone with cast iron detail 'Seaton 3' painted in black. Other details: Map 2, photograph.
