Full Description

The remote reserve generator for Loth Radar Station is situated 100m W of Crackaig House (NC91SE 7.00). Constructed of shuttered concrete with an entrance at both ends, much of the earth cover for the bunker has been removed since its use as a cattle shelter for the farm. The bunker is visible on vertical air photographs (CPE/Scot/UK/225, 3428-29, flown 1947).
