Two semi-circles of concrete blocks with steel rings attached, which formed part of a barrage balloon mooring site are visible in an area of old peat cuttings between the water tank and the gun-emplacements (ND39SW 41.00) at Innan Neb. The remainder of the mooring site probably still survives under the uncut peat.
