Remains of a glider trap, consisting of a row of iron scaffolding poles forming a barrier across an open stretch of beach to prevent the landing of gliders during World War II. Now eroding and partially collapsed. The beach scaffolding originally ran along the length of Foveran, Drum, Menie and Blackdog Links. Site visit in 2022 as part of the SCAPE Coastal Zone Assessment Survey reported remains of scaffolding poles, arranged in a strip, visible on the sand surface and partially buried under vegetated dunes to the west of a red brick pillbox in Foveran Links. Numerous metal scaffolding fittings are scattered across the flat sand area.
