Default Which Guns?

Hello Folks Im trying to find out which guns (poss. AA or something similar)would have sat on the ground and possibly overhung these concrete curved walls. this is Braefoot Bay in Fife Scotland, its an old WW1 and WW2 Gun Battery.There are 4 mounting rings on the wall (poss for recoil?) and rectanguular holes in the walls with rusted metal outers which once were shutters/doors poss for ammo storage and there is a large circular mounting position on the ground with a large ammount of thick threaded metal bars arranged in three/four thick(in the brush just behind my dog alfie) obviously they are there to bolt down something quite large! u can make sum out on ground of second photo.You will also see a rail system leading from a magazine store to both guns. any help IDing the guns-especially pics would be splendid! cheers,toaffer
