At the southern end of the alleged monorail (Kirkdale Archaeology, see NS40SE 44.04), a complex of moving targets was built, for gunners under training to fire at. Its precise nature and extent is not known, but concrete pillars and made-up roadways have been recorded on the southern and western flanks of Craigencolon Hill; local tradition suggests that the northern flank of the hill also had targets erected there.
