Divis KP or Divis Key Point as it was known, was a remote military communications station situated on the bleak Divis Mountain to the west of Belfast overlooking the City. Due to the highly sensitive nature of the site little is publicly known about it, however as part of the normalisation process within Northern Ireland it was abandoned in around 2005, this visit was in 2008. I believe it was demolished the following year.
There was a short article I came across in ‘The Sapper’ magazine January 2005 from the two Sections who were tasked with the ‘lock and leave’ of Divis KP. They stripped out 2km of coil fencing, installed new chain link fence with razor wire, removed the reinforced concrete blocks along with other improvised barriers and electrical cables.
When I visited first, it was clear that vandals had cut wire to gain access, and smashed doors and windows, as well as caused other damage inside. Most of the site has been removed, and the compound reduced in size, but a single mast and transmitter house still remain.
