Full Description
Pill box. [1]
Approximate position from Pillbox Survey.

March 2004. Norfolk NMP.
No pillbox is visible in this location on any of the consulted photographs. This site may be the same as a pillbox mapped 140m to its west (NHER 38523).

There is indeed no pillbox now at this location but it is a hump in the middle of a field, a perfect location for one. The aerial photography evidence mentioned probably shows this is a mistaken grid reference but the hump does add the possibility that there might have been such a feature here for a time.
E. Rose (NLA), 20 April 2004.
