Doesn't seem to be possible.

An alternative would be to use: https://www.bench-marks.org.uk/search
- select the benchmark type 'Triangulation Pillar' and enter a Flush Bracket number.

The '?' option can be used to obtain information on controlling the search in various ways;
for example, by entering just an underscore you can display a list of all the flush
brackets which don't have the usual letter prefix (the 29xx series).

Yes, it is possible to search TPUK by Flush Bracket number. I use that facility regularly. I detest the historically irrelevant different TP numbers used by different websites. the FB number is the visible identifier on almost all pillars.

Using the SEARCH box at the top of the home page, key in the NUMBER of the flush bracket you are looking for BUT do not include the leading S. I find that works for all but a few in the 10000 series.

Good luck!

Graeme.
