NO53SW 85 centred on 53794 31515

NO53SW 85.01 centred on 53615 31895 Rifle Range

NO53SW 85.02 centred on 53655 31415 Rifle Range

NO53SW 85.03 centred on 53830 31250 Rifle Range

This group of three rifle ranges is located on the Spion Kop, to the N of the Buddon Ness Old High Lighthouse [NO53SW 21]. The current edition of the OS 1:10000 map (1974) shows a possible firing area but this does not match any of the three ranges visible on RCAHMS aerial photographs (RCAHMSAP 2003). These ranges probably date from the late 1970s or later.
