Full Description

On coast, NE of Hereson.Pillbox [Sector 7]. Cassini ref 835836

This structure was mapped from military aerial photographs as part of the SE Rapid Coastal Zone Assessment Survey.

The building measures 5.5m by 4.5m and was mapped from aerial photographs taken in May 1942 [1]. The pillbox is difficult to see due to its location beside some trees, so it is was not clearly seen on any other photographs even on Google Earth.
