Lost Dunoon

Ardhallow coastal defence

Another defensive layer almost gone from view.

Ardhallow carried part of the Clyde’s defensive system, but like many wartime sites it now sits awkwardly between memory and near-invisibility.

What it was

Ardhallow played a role in the wider Clyde defence network during wartime.

What was lost

Structures, equipment, and public knowledge of how militarised the shoreline once was.

What remains now

Limited traces and a need for mapping against wartime plans.

Research leads

Add batteries, observation points, and local-service memories.
