Entrenchments, East Broom Hill.
There are now no vestiges of these entrenchments, but at one time there were fortifications on both East and West Broom Hill, the latter dating from 1627. Before 1650 there was a second fort "on the East height," constructed in the first instance by the Covenanters of Fife (1). A plan of the fort on the "East Head" as it existed in 1804, is given by Young (2).
