A large-scale map dated 1916 on a War Department file (The National Archives WO 78/4417) shows a summary of the landward defences of Dundee (on the Angus side) and the Tay Railway Bridge (on the Fife side). The map also shows a defensive post to the west of tayport, labelled 'Spiershill Fort'. It is not clear what form this position took.
