An aircraft post stands on a hilltop several miles to the north east at NG69601260. It is of the standard Scottish post war design consisting of a building approximately 7' X 5' with an open topped observation area approximately 5' X 5' and a crew room with a sloping tin sheet as a roof. The removable tin roof for the observation room lies on the grass nearby. This post was known as Isle of Oronsay but was re-named Ardvasar when resited in 1961. |
