Full Description
December 2023. Wendling Beck and Fransham Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
A Second World War Type 22 pillbox is visible as an extant building on 1940s aerial photographs (S1). It may still have survived, albeit covered in vegetation, in the early 1970s (S2). More recent aerial sources (such as S3) show that it has been demolished.
