AA Battery Duntocher

A World War II anti-aircraft battery was sited near Duntocher, Clydebank. Site number N5. Part of the Clyde AA Defences, the battery was also known as Mountblow.

The battery was equipped with four emplacements, armed with 3.7-inch guns, GL Radar, and had an accommodation camp to the north. The site was visible in aerial photographs taken by the RAF in 1947, which showed the emplacements, camp, and the remains of the GL Radar mat.

There are no surviving remains, and the site has been lost beneath a housing development.
