The former Anti Aircraft Operations Room (AAOR), situated about 300m NE of Craigiehall House, was built about 1953-4 to co-ordinate anti aircraft guns in the Forth and Rosyth Gun Defended Area (GDA). The AAOR was only operational until 1956 when the system of air defence was abandoned in the face of rapidly developing radar, missile technology and supersonic planes. The building which retains much of the original layout has been used as a training centre.
