Full Description
June 2009. Norfolk NMP.
A possible World War Two military structure with a blast wall is visible on aerial photographs to the north of the river Yare, centred on TG 2505 0792. The structure itself measures 4m by 5m, and exhibits a blast wall to the north east, which measures between 0.4 and 1.5m in width.
The presence of possible practice or slit trenches visible 150m to the northwest (NHER 52120) makes a military function for the structure seem probable, although it may have served as an air raid shelter for surrounding possible industrial structures.
E. Bales (NMP), 01 June 2009.
