Some general info about the Millenium mileposts - found on sustrans.org.uk/national-cycle-network/millennium-mileposts:
"Unveiled in the year 2000, they are a celebration of the freedom and diversity of the National Cycle Network.
Over 1,000 Millennium Mileposts were installed, stretching to all corners of the UK, some as far north as the Shetland Islands.
You’ll find them at scenic spots on the Network, such as coastal paths and nature reserves.
They can also be found at train stations and other key locations where the Network runs through villages, towns and cities."
