11th Milestone, Road curve on A3 Castletown to Ramsey Road, Isle of Man

The 11th Milestone is a tall metal post on the A3 between Castletown and Ramsey on the Isle of Man. It marks a location on a winding stretch of road that connects two parishes.

The milestone was built in the 19th century to guide travelers on this mountainous road. The current road layout was redesigned in the 1830s to avoid difficult terrain.

The landmark sits along a road section that drew motorcycle racers and motorsport enthusiasts for generations. Visitors can still sense the historic connection to the island's racing heritage when passing through.

The post sits on an active road with curves, so care is needed when stopping nearby. It is easy to spot when traveling from Castletown to Ramsey due to its distinctive height.

The milestone was originally built at a different location and was later moved to where it stands now. This relocation shows how the island's infrastructure changed over time.
