Part of the Eastriggs Explosives factory.
The explosives works and stores are visible on a series of RAF WW II oblique aerial photographs (F 309, 10572-10591, flown 26 January 1942), which show the general layout of the works. The works are also visible on more recent vertical air photographs (All Scotland Survey [Jasair], 507 88 140-142, flown 10 June 1988), which show that much of the site had been abandoned by that date.
