This medieval packhorse sign directs you to Glossop, Edale, Shefield (sic) and Hope. It's marked 1737 but this might be the date it was restored rather than the date it was originally built. A great 7-foot (2 m) landmark on the way from Sheffield to Edale.

A medieval way marker, with the capstone having the names Glossop, Sheffield, Hope and Edale and a date of 1737, thought to relate to the capstone and not the pillar.
