For at least 35 years from the late 1930s through until the 1970s, OS Large Scale maps repeatedly mark the B943, Abbey Wall Road in Pittenweem as the B948, despite also showing the number in its correct location in Coupar Angus. There is no other evidence to suggest that the route number in Pittenweem was ever changed, suggesting this is a simple mapping error, perhaps stemming from a poorly written document. However, the length of time that this error survived is highly unusual.
