Dumbarton Foreshore: former rifle range
This part of the foreshore is labelled "Rifle Range" on the second-edition OS map (1896); that includes not just the clear lane that is presently a path, but also the overgrown area just to the left of it.
See also Image, a view back from near the eastern end of the former rifle range. As far as I know, there are no visible remains.

Castlegreen Waste Water Pumping Station
The site is marked (as "Sewage Works") on the 1:25000 map. The large building directly ahead and the enclosure beside it are marked individually on the map.
Given their small size, they might be taken (on the map) to be a bipartite building, but a closer look reveals that the part to the SW (the building) is shaded, while that to the NE (the enclosure) is not.
For another part of the works, to the left of the photographer's position, see Image The site was upgraded in 2012.
