The World War II Port War signal station is situated at the end of a track from Mellon Charles on the point at Ploc Leacan Donna.
Only the concrete bases of several huts survive with small sections of upstanding brick walling still in situ. The Port War Signal Station was blown up when an unexploded shell was placed in the main block. The shattered brickwork still lies as it was left. The gun-emplacement was for a 2-pounder pom-pom.
