This milestone is set into the wall in front of 'Edenholme' just east of Linlithgow. Although damaged, the lost top having been inscribed EDIN/15, the cut benchmark is still visible. Although pitted, as with all the other remaining milestones on this route, there is worn evidence of fine horizontal broaching on the stone. From the Linlithgowshire and Stirling Joint Trust of 1754.
