Second World War bombing range target indicator and observation post

This structure is a Second World War bombing range target indicator and observation post, built around 1942, overlooking Putsborough Sands and Morte Bay.

The target indicator consists of concrete slabs arranged in the shape of an arrow, which points north-east and downhill. The shaft of the arrow measures approximately 13 meters in length, while each side of the arrowhead is about 8 meters long.

Located approximately 30 meters to the west of the tip of the arrow is a single-storey observation post, which has a rectangular plan. It is made of brick with concrete render and features a flat roof with a projecting cornice and plinth, along with a projecting porch on the south side that is slightly lower than the main roof. The east and west sides each have one window, while the north side has a large central window flanked by two narrower windows. All windows are blocked, but small protruding cills remain, and the doorway is also bricked-up. On the west side, there is a shallow water trough at ground level. The structure includes pieces of protruding steelwork, which are assumed to be part of its construction. Details about the interior are not known.
