WWII remains at Kilmalid [6 photos] in NS400770 :: Geograph Britain and Ireland

Shared description

WWII remains at Kilmalid

The structures at Kilmalid are associated with a Second World War Anti-Aircraft Battery; see Link

for Canmore's description of the site; that article includes aerial photographs of the gun emplacements, taken before they were cleared away during the construction of a roundabout. Remains (mostly hut bases) of the associated accommodation camp extended in an arc from about NS 3991 7694 to about NS 4405 7705, but they were later cleared to make way for a manufacturing plant (opened in 2012); see Link

for a map of the WWII remains that were visible when I visited.
