Full Description

The foundations of the wartime meteorological office were noted by ARCH's Evanton Wartime Remains project in 2013. The curved kerb leading into the camp from Newton Road North was extant in 2013. There was a gate here, as the metal plate survived in the middle of the road at the time of this project. On one side of the road were the remains of the kerb, on the other a stone dyke. <1>
