This casemate is of type Lincolnshire three-bay. During World War II, these bunkers were used for the defence of the United Kingdom against a possible enemy invasion. They were built in 1940 and into 1941
The Lincolnshire three bay pillbox is a variant form of the FW3/23. Essentially it is two of that type placed back to back and sharing an AAMG well to create a rectangular pillbox approximately 6.5m long and 2.5m wide with three fighting compartments. The two enclosed chambers each have three embrasures, one in each external wall. The AA well has the entrance to the pillbox which faces inland. This type of pillbox was generally used as part of the coastal crust and is found on the seawalls of Lincolnshire. In many cases they are now some distance inland as more farmland has been reclaimed from the sea.

Digital Taxidermy is a new design studio producing ranges of 3D printed models and STL files for home printing. Our little world has spawned a series of science fiction stories set in our world under the heading ?A Jolly Fine Dystopia? these stories and the models are heading towards a tabletop skirmish and RPG game still to come.
The model is printed in PLA at a 0.3mm layer height. It will have a texture consistent with filament printing.
Smaller scales may be substituted for print in ABS-like resin.
Some clean up and finishing may be required.
Models are supplied unpainted and It will be printed to order, allow max 10 days for production.
