Most likely in the vicinity of Kingcausie Hill (eyewitness who remembers playing there as a child)
Maryculter Patrol
The likely targets would have been bridges over the River Dee. This would be a natural barrier for invasion troops trying to head North or South. There is a road between Stonehaven in the South that would allow bypassing of Aberdeen that the patrol would likely monitor / attack.
At Portlethen, there was a Chain Home Radar station, given the proximity to Maryculter at Hillhead (Portlethen) , this could have been a target.
Given the close proximity to Milltimber, the names have been assumed based on the River Dee splitting the areas. Please also see Milltimber Patrol report for names.
