Anyone know what this tructure is in Ticknock / Three rock?

Yeah I'd agree. There'd be 4 targets per level.

In your 4th picture there, you can what it would be like with the links below.

Rounds would be coming from the right hand side. The target would be exposed above the grassline, you'd be standing underneath the overhang.
