What do we know about Wirral gun sites from the second world war? I know about the one on the sandhills at Wallasey. Was there one by Bidston station?
Father used to tell me about the mobile one's that fired off a few shots and then moved. For what reason I don't know because I can hardly imagine the Germans were going to hang around to plot where it was!
I think I have heard of a static one at Storeton as well. Has anyone ever researched this?

Any info on the old gun site of brimstage Lane?? Been trying to finger it out but carnt find anythink None of the gunsite is left but in the trees the concrete bases and chimney stacks of the camp huts and some of the drain and electricity conduits are left. Well worth a wander. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.3469856,-3.0366167,188m/data=!3m1!1e3There are pictures on this forum somewhere as well as information about the gun positions in the immediate field to the north-west and radar mat across the road. I'll hunt them out if you can't find them.
