Geograph - photograph every grid square

The main point of interest here is not the house with scaffolding that appears in the background (which is Seabank Cottage - NS3377 : Seabank Cottage), but the ruins that stand in front of it.

As is revealed on the 1:25000 map, and is also evident from aerial/satellite imagery, these ruins are clustered in an unusual pattern. In fact, these are some of the remains of Anti-Aircraft Battery Cardross, which was also known as Murrays; for a great deal more information about this emplacement, and pictures of the site, see the following article at the Secret Scotland website: Link (Archive Link )

The battery at Murrays formed part of the Clyde Anti-Aircraft defences, and was listed as "Anti-aircraft gun emplacement AN4" (compare another gun emplacement at Mugdock: NS5477 : Anti-aircraft gun emplacement N9 - inside the bunker).

In the following related items, I've tried to employ the same numbering of emplacements as was used on the Secret Scotland site:

Gun emplacements:
NS3377 : Murrays - first gun emplacement
NS3377 : Murrays - second gun emplacement
NS3377 : Murrays - third gun emplacement
NS3377 : Murrays - fourth gun emplacement
NS3377 : Murrays - fifth gun emplacement
NS3377 : Murrays - sixth gun emplacement

Other buildings:
NS3377 : Murrays - command post
NS3377 : Murrays - accommodation camp (ruins)
NS3377 : Murrays - possible site of latrine block
