Old milestone hidden in the bush near the new national road from Bruges to Maldegem (Oost-vlaanderen). Not a lot of people know this is here.
There is a bike road passing by, but the milestone is hidden away in a bush.
It's one of a few left, and was placed in the 19 th century when the first national roads were built.
