LOP 8 Bray Head

Bray Head  The remains of lookout post No. 8 are located on the Cliff Walk from Bray to Greystone. Today, only a few collapsed fragments of the former lookout post remain. The logbooks of the coastal observers supplemented coastal surveillance between the south coast of Dublin and Greystone. The logbooks can now be viewed on the Irish Defence Forces website  militaryarchives.ie. Photographs taken by the Irish Air Corps in the 1950s show the former post at Bray Head. The associated EIRE sign was already overgrown with vegetation at that time. In July 2018, a fire at Bray Head exposed the ground markings below the lookout post ruins.
