Duncryne Road
As depicted on the first-edition OS map, which was surveyed in 1860, there were quarries on both sides of the road, their near edges being roughly where the houses shown in this picture now stand.
The house to the left of the road is called Quarry Cottage. A building was depicted as standing in about the same place on the first-edition map, when the quarries were still in use; that may be why the name of that house, in particular, recalls their former presence.

Old milestone
The presence of the stone is noted on both the 1:25000 and 1:50000 OS maps (as "MP": milepost). It was present when the first-edition OS map was surveyed in 1860, and is noted on that map (as "MS"). It is still in its original position, near the junction of the Old Military Road and Duncryne Road.
The Commissioners of Supply, and the Trustees for the Turnpike Roads, who were responsible for these milestones, appear to have favoured the spelling Dunbarton; see Image for more on that topic.
(Also with the spelling "Dunbarton": Image and Image With "Dumbarton": Image and Image)
