Plate showing the starting point for measuring the mileage from Church Road Junction to the Central Goods depot circa 1953. All structures needed to be easily identified and located for the purpose of maintenance etc. This was achieved by recording on each route the mileage from a given point to each structure. On the plate above the letters 'FROM C R Jn' can be seen in the small circle which meant from Church Road Junction. The plated was sited on the retaining wall opposite the junction points with '0' denoting the mileage.
