Description
The building known as Building 127 is a reinforced concrete sentry post, constructed to protect the Chattenden Magazine Enclosure E gate, located just within the enclosure boundary wall to the west. This one or two-man shelter stands approximately 2.5 meters high and has a polygonal shape with eleven sides and a shallow domed roof. The walls are about 30 centimeters thick and built in sections of approximately 60 centimeters. The roof is made using a corrugated former. Access is provided through a small, heavy, hatched east door made of reinforced concrete, featuring a steel bar handle and external strap hinges. There are five observation apertures on alternate sides, which could also function as small arms embrasures for handguns. The interior retains some metal sheet lining.
