Yarrow ROC Post
Opened in September 1961 and closed 30 years later, this is one of over 300 Royal Observer Corps (ROC) posts across Scotland. In the Cold War era the job of the ROC was to report the positions of the nuclear bomb strikes and monitor resulting fallout areas and relay these back to Group Headquarters.

The Yarrow ROC Post
The Royal Observer Corps was introduced in 1925 to identify incoming enemy aircraft, and in 1955 with the escalation of the cold war, the ROC had the task of monitoring nuclear blasts and fall out and relaying information back to Group Headquarters. 1563 small underground chambers were built up and down the countryside about 7 to 8 miles apart for this purpose. The Yarrow post, near the A708 to the west of the Gordon Arms Hotel, was opened in September 1961 and closed in September 1991.
