Image: © N Scott Taken: 22 Mar 2023

Milestone with cancelled Ordnance Survey Benchnark (OSBM) used for levelling height above Ordnance Datum (OD). The mark was used on the Brecknock to Cardigan line of the First Primary Levelling of England & Wales in 1856. It was levelled with a height of 248.874' above OD (Liverpool). Description: 119. Mark on the 2d milestone from Cardigan ; 2.18 ft. above surface. Page 572 of the abstract: https://www.bench-marks.org.uk/abstract/ew1gl/1GLA_572.png The mark has been cancelled by the addition of the two extra lines above the horizontal datum line, due to the line no longer being horizontal (most likely caused by a vehicle hitting the stone).
