Full Description
Remains of two rows of tank traps running in curved parallel lines on a roughly northeast-southwest alignment, with some toppled right over. Behind the two rows are further squared concrete blocks, 1 m long and 0.4 m square in profile, suggesting a further line of defence. More associated blocks are likely to be buried within the sand. Recorded during coastal zone assessment survey carried out by SCAPE between February and March 2009.
