Description
MATERIAL: reinforced, shuttered concrete.
DESCRIPTION: the pillbox is constructed of concrete using vertical wooden shuttering and is an irregular hexagon on plan. It stands on a large concrete plinth. There are embrasures to the east, north-east and south-east sides and an entrance to the west side; all have been sealed with concrete to prevent access. The anti-tank pimple to the south-west survives from a line of defensive blocks that were erected across the trackway. It has a pyramidal top and retains some of its original camouflage paint.
