A WW II pillbox has been identified from a RAF WW II oblqiue air photograph taken in 1943 (NLA 66, frame no.0025, flown 2 July 1943), , situated on the S side of Craigie Avenue at the junction (round-a-bout) with Strips of Craigie Road. The pillbox formed part of a road block (NO43SW 1018) which covered Craigie Avenue.
The pillbox and road block have since been removed following the end of World War II.
