Up to four parallel lines of barbed wire extend roughly north to south for approximately 275m. This arrangement of barbed wire is centred at TR 0847 2520, just to the west of Littlestone Tower (Monument Number 462720). The barbed wire was presumably intended to defend some kind of military installation, such as a coastal battery. However, no associated structures could be seen on the aerial photographs. The barbed wire is contemporary with other Second World War defences immediately adjacent to the north, such as anti-tank cubes (Monument Number 1535062) and defensive scaffolding (Monument Number 1535064). By the time of the vertical aerial photograph of 1946; all the barbed wire appears to have been removed (1-2).
