At, or near to, this marker was the site of Second World War searchlight battery No. 41117 at Newsham Park. It was manned by the 38 Anti-Aircraft Battalion Royal Engineers. The battery was operational by 14 May 1940 and positioned to protect Liverpool from air attack. Searchlight sites typically comprised a small ring-ditch to provide the crew with shelter during an air raid, a predictor emplacement for calculating the height and range of targets, a light anti-aircraft machine gun pit, a generator and hutted accommodation for the crew.
