THREE Yorkshire Stone markers that welcome drivers to Steeton and Eastburn have been cleaned and repainted 18 years after they were first installed.
The three stones were originally erected in 2000 by Steeton Male Voice Choir to mark the millennium year and indicate the parish boundaries.
David Mullen, chairman of Steeton-with-Eastburn Parish Council, said: “Because they are prominent markers to both Steeton and Eastburn it is important that they were renovated.”
David Gallagher, of David Gallagher Funeral Directors in nearby Utley, worked closely with his masons, Wright & Sons, and Cllr Mullen, to arrange the chemical clean and re-painting of the inscriptions.
Pictured are Cllr Mullen, vice-chairman Su Thompson, clerk Sarah Brooksbank, Cllr Roger Lambert and Mr Gallagher.
