Roofless WWII military structure showing the almost interlocking internal walls within, thought to be an unfinished pillbox. It is located close to the River Stour and measures 8.5m by 7.3m. It was first visible and has been mapped from aerial photographs taken in September 1941 [1] and is gone by April 1944 [2], by which time this area had developed into a military depot (See Related Monument MWX43282).
