Full Description
January 2001. NMP.
A bombing range marker is visible as a structure at TF 7415 4505 on 1952 APs (S1). This would have been a remnant of the World War Two activity in this area, presumably indicating the use of the area for practising war manoeuvres. It is arrow-shaped, and is c. 20m long.
A. Hunt (NMP), 24 January 2001.
