Details An Auxiliary army secret hideout lay within the woodland covering Rob's Knowe to the south of Mill of Alvah. It consisted of two probable Anderson Shelters of corrugated iron, linked with a series of large concrete pipes forming entrance and escape tunnels. They were buried underground in the side of a fairly steep slope. The present farmer recalls seeing them but nothing is now visible.
