Full Description
May 2020. National Mapping Programme (NMP) Data Clean-Up.
This site was mapped from aerial photographs as part of the Norfolk Coastal Zone NMP project, but not recorded. This record was written more than 10 years later, without access to the original sources, and therefore the information that can be included is limited, and the interpretation is more tentative than it might be otherwise.
A line of Second World War anti-tank cubes was identified on aerial photographs. The specific photographs used to map the features are not known, but they are visible at this location on mid-1940s aerial photographs viewable online (S1). They would have formed part of the Second World War defences along this stretch of coast. The blocks are not visible on recent Google Earth imagery (S2) and may have been removed.
