The metal bracket known as a Flush Bracket was fixed on the west face of the passageway between 2 Victoria Avenue 'Elmcroft' and neighbouring flats. It was used in the 3GL levelling of 1960 as one of the benchmarks along the Gurnard (IOW) to Freshwater (IOW) levelling line. Each FB has a unique serial number, this one being G4454. It was levelled at 56.0351 m above Newlyn datum. Details of this and neighbouring marks can be found at http:/www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm13448. A list of all the benchmarks along the levelling line can be found at http://www.bench-marks.org.uk/line281.
