What may be the control room for a flame barrage is situated about 300m NW of the mouth of the Burn of Wester. It consists of a small concrete and brick room built into the dunes.
Though demolished, the tank to supply fuel for the flame barrage was at ND 3391 5777. Only broken pieces of concrete and what may have been the supporting piers for the tank survive at this location.
