Activities

Field Visit (1 January 2001)

All that was visible of the firing range at the time of survey was an elongated sandy mound covered in maram grass. It was orientated E-W and measured c. 60 m by 15 m and existed to c. 2.5 m in height. This is presumably the target end of the range with the mound stopping the bullets. A Go Kart track has been built to the N.There are 3 amunition boxes, made of steel and concrete blocks.

Visited by Scotland's Coastal Heritage at Risk (SCHARP) 1st January 2001
