I have read on other websites that there was a battery also located behind
Ryhope Grange Farm off Ryhope Road (now occupied by a garden nursery) Does
anyone know anything of this? I know Stan has posted about a battery
further
west near Carmere Road junction with Toll Bar Road - is this the same
battery?

Yes, this was the Ryhope heavy anti-aircraft battery, coords 440520,
