1997 Coast Battery. All that survives are two earth mounds of the two gun emplacements. The battery formed part of the anti-ship defences covering the channel between Cramond Island and Inchmickery. Two 12 pounder guns were mounted in two temporary emplacements, with, in addition three degree concentric beams from LCD lamps situated near the site of the existing No. 3 and No. 4 emplacements. These lamps were powered from a temporary engine room. ( PRO WO 78/5164).
