The rather sorry remains of an OS cutmark lie in the middle of the yellow stone in the centre of this picture. The datum line is just about visible; not so the three-legged arrow that normally supports it, although it can just about be made out, with the eye of faith, by following the lichen patches. Originally levelled at 219.529m above Ordnance Datum Newlyn.
