Around Arley there are still three remaining rhyming signposts composed by R. Edgerton-Warburton in the 19th century.
Born in 1804, he was a country squire, landlord & notable local poet.
He also converted what was a barn on the photo of Arley Green (other page) into a school.

Unless they wend their way to call
At mill or Green or Arley Hall "

"Tresspassers this notice heed
Onward you may not proceed
Unless to Arley Hall you speed"
