NC27SE 45 29825 71775

This sentry post, which was constructed but never used, is situated immediately W of the junction of the track that leads down to Kearvaig farmstead (NC27SE 13) and the main road that links a slipway on the Kyle of Durness (NC 3708 6603) to the lighthouse (NC27SE 3.00) at Cape Wrath. It comprises a timber shed with a corrugated steel sheet roof (CWTC08 202: NC 29922 71713), and a steel container (CWTC08 203: NC 29826 71767). A grass-grown mound (CWTC08 204) immediately W of the shed probably marks the position of a buried vehicle (information from range wardens, 10 September 2008).
