Bench mark on Miller Road
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:

Haldane Leisure Barn
Due to the lack of facilities for both the young and the elderly, the Leisure Barn was built in Haldane in 1994.
It was hoped that it could be used and run by the community.
The immediate area around the barn is very run down. It is not user friendly for either the disabled or the elderly and is too isolated from the rest of the community.
There are the remains of an existing concrete base for skateboarding, but it has never been maintained by the Council and is no longer in use.
There is an AstroTurf for 5-a-side football but there are signs up saying that it is dangerous.

Footbridge over the Ballagan Burn
One of the results of a recent regeneration project was the creation of this footbridge. For a view of the burn from there, see Image As well as this red bridge, there is a blue bridge (just a short distance to the south-west), a network of paths, and various other features (Image, for example).
The parts of the Haldane on the far side of the burn are Shandon Crescent (foreground, right), and Shandon Brae (background, left).
