Fingerpost



A fingerpost (sometimes referred to as a guide post) is a name given to traditional British sign posts comprising a post with one or more arms - known as fingers - pointing in the direction of travel to named places on the fingers. They are typically made from cast-iron or wood, with poles painted in black, white or grey, and fingers with black letters on a white background and often include distance information in miles.
