This pillbox, east of the junction of the Canterbury and Dover Roads, east of Barham village, was pillbox No.107 in the 1940 list of pillboxes in East Kent (2 December); it was in Sector 3 of the area, at the stated Military Grid reference R 665671. The junction formed the focus of the ‘X-Roads’ Nodal Point, and the pillbox probably formed part of the Nodal-Point defences. It may well have been concealed in the edge of Wick Wood, and may have sighted down the Dover Road to cover a roadblock about 300m to the south. It may also have covered a second road block nearby on Canterbury Road.
