Summary : A Second World War pillbox situated at the eastern perimeter of RAF Coltishall and south of Malthouse Farm. The pillbox was built of concrete and was constructed during the period 1940 to 1941. It formed part of the eastern perimeter defences of RAF Coltishall. The large pillbox features mounts in five embrasures which are wide splayed. It also features hatches in its roof which originally should give access to a Light anti-aircraft gun position. In 1994 it was holding a modern sangar on its roof. At the time of a field visit in February 1994 the site was in poor condition. |
