Pillbox ?
I had a meeting this afternoon in a part of Dunfermline l had never had occasion to visit before. Afterwards I walked past this-
Looks like a pillbox to me. Anyone know what kind?
Very much looks like it, you can see where the firing ports were and it looks to be in a slightly elevated position which makes sense - good field of fire.
Is it this one - photo looks similar ? https://www.tracesofwar.com/sights/22191/Pillbox-FW3-24-Pitreavie-Castle.htm
