Full Description
Anti-tank blocks from World War II. They run in a line across the stream, but many have toppled and sunk into the sand. Site visit in 2022 as part of the SCAPE Coastal Zone Assessment Survey recorded that around 14-20 anti tank cubes have been re-purposed to revet the banks of the small burn that flows across the golf course. Seven visible on the north side and 6-7 on south side of golf course. See also NK03SE0012.
