Full Description
23 January 2023. Casual Observation.
Noted by member of the public at approximately TL 87302 82583 [1]:
Previously unrecorded World War Two spigot mortar pedestal ('thimble'). The concrete pedestal is hexagonal with an intact stainless steel pin. As only the uppermost portion of the pedestal is currently exposed it is unclear whether other elements of the mortar emplacement survive.
See photographs (S1).
