Full Description
Pill box (Ordnance Survey).
This is highly unlikely to have been a pill box in the modern sense of the word. This 6 inch sheet has only been revised for major changes (in 1950) since 1928; there are no other examples of World War Two pill boxes being marked even on revised maps. More likely this was a round lodge house or similar that acquired the name.
Not a trace of any structure here. Note for comparison Pill box Plantation at Hainford, named from its shape.
E. Rose (NAU), 15 April 1980.
