I feel sure that Mike Clarke, who wrote the history of the L&L Canal will know - Google the Leeds & Liverpool Canal Society for his E-address.He is chairman. He lives in Barnoldswick now. A lad who comes on this site may well know to, as he is a Claytoner - Alan Gilmartin.
I think it is the wrong shape for a mileage post, which were of uniform size & shape.
It may be similar to one further along, just inside Yortkshire I think, which says "ON THIS SPOT IN 1795,NOTHING HAPPENED'
