West Brunton, World War I Ranging Station

One of three such sites (there used to be one at Kenton plus a third unknown site). It was used to triangulate the altitude and range of a zeppelin. It consists of a circular reinforced concrete base with a telephone point, but the compass direction dial has gone {1}. The circular planar surface is 1.5m in diameter and 0.6m high. It contains a recess for a field telephone connected to the anti-aircraft guns command post.
