Full Description
Anti-tank blocks at the north end of Lunan Bay. Approximately 120 m of triple and quadruple lines of dragons teeth blocks are visible on aerial photographs taken circa 1941 and post-war. Coastal zone assessment survey carried out by SCAPE between February and March 2009 recorded three parallel lines of blocks, each block 0.8 m square. The easternmost are more obscured by sand and grass and in poorer condition.
