Full Description
January 2026. Casual Observation.
Previously unrecorded World War Two spigot mortar pedestal noted by member of the public [1] adjacent to footpath at TL 86729 84029.
At present only the well-preserved stainless steel spindle and the top of the reinforced concrete pedestal are visible, so it is unclear whether any other elements of the emplacement survive.
See photographs (S1).
P. Watkins (HES), 20 January 2026.
