Archaeology Notes

NN15NE 6.01 c.1742 5688

Photographed in 2007 as part of a survey of 20th century Defences of Scotland and to enhance and augment the existing holdings of the National Monuments Record Scotland.

Information from RCAHMS (DE), April 2007

A second rectangular stone built pillbox is situated about 30-40m upslope NNE of NN15NE 6.00.

Despite being heavily robbed, it would appear to be a similar type to that below. The loopholes face west and triangular blocks of concrete have been used.
