Full Description
A building near the junction of St Stephen’s Road, and Broadoak Road (Military Grid Reference R 591769) had been adopted as a fortified house by November 1940. This was fortified house No. 4 in a list of such structures made 2 December that year. It may well have been intended to cover a contemporaneous roadblock a little way down Broad Oak Road, to the north-east.
