Geocache Description:

The Niner.

The milestones were erected when the North Road from Glasnevin to Curragha was built between 1809 and 1820. Tolls were levied to pay for the upkeep of the road and as these tolls were based on the number of miles travelled, milestones were required to mark distances.

Like a Ten Mile Stone, The Nine Mile Stone (The Niner) in Ashbourne measures nine old Irish miles (1 mile = 2048 m) from GPO building in Dublin.

Cache is micro container with log and pencill inside.

Just park and grab.

Enjoy!
