Carnbooth Anti-Aircraft Battery was one of at least 43 similar sites around the city constructed to intercept any incoming air attack from German forces on industrial sites across the banks of the River Clyde. The site was later modified during the Cold War to counter Soviet threats. It was during this period that some of the buildings were demolished and a command post, engine house, and a perimeter security fence were constructed.
