At left, the 24 Milestone was reset in December 2009 by the History Club of Church Farm School. It is now on the South side of the Lincoln Highway about .15 miles West of its estimated original site.
Above, the 29 Milestone appears to have been cleaned before being reset just East of the Ashbridge House in Downingtown. The circular scar on it's right side also appears in it's 1952 picture.
