Pillbox, no specification. Circular pillbox mounted on earthen bank [?].
(Source: Field Visit 1999/10/28)
A circular concrete pillbox with a truncated conical roof, standing on a foundation of oil drums on top of a blast pen. It appears to be WW2 structure that has been re-sited. Close inspection was not possible, but it looks like a Norcon type pillbox with a roof added (B. Lowry suggests on the SRF that it is a cold war structure).
