Full Description

A yellow stock brick structure was encountered in Trench 3 of possible early to mid 20th century date. There is no indication on any of the Historic Ordnance Survey maps that a structure existed in this part of the site and it is possible that it may relate to the civil defence infrastructure based in Bridge during World War II and then demolished shortly after the war.
