Photograph Notes: These are the remains of an FW3/23 type pillbox, which was part of the Western Command Stop Line No.8. It is recorded in the Defence of Britain Database with a slightly different grid ref of SJ 3192 6875. Clearly the description of its condition as 'very bad' is accurate. The remaining large piece on the right is the outside area, which, somewhat surprisingly, still has its machine gun post. The gap on the corner is where the soldiers descended into the enclosed section. The enclosed section has completely collapsed with the roof slab now at ground level in the centre of the photo. The strategically important blue bascule bridge, built in 1926, can be seen in the background.
