Coulport in Argyll, West Scotland is a site of protest as it is home to a Royal Naval Armaments Depot (RNAD). It was originally established during the Cold War as a facility for Polaris nuclear weapons, and today stores Trident warheads.
CND is an organisation that campaigns for peace and for governments around the world to demilitarise and discard existing and new nuclear weapons programmes.
