This 3rd-order cut benchmark is on a stone at the northern end of the east parapet of the bridge where Miller Road crosses the Carrochan Burn. It is 17.458m above Newlyn datum (according to the OS database). The upper surface of the stone above it has some interesting details, not visible from this angle: there are rectangular sockets at the corners (as if the stone had formerly supported something else), and some inscribed text: ■ ■ P N°2 ■ ■
