Some of these items from Western Command Stop Line 14 have featured in other posts but as they are a series (and it's quiet in here!) I'm including them anyway.
Anti tank block e08421 (database says two blocks but there is only one plus a single steel rail post at the opposite side of the bridge) http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps3cc9e9f9.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps60c7164b.jpg Anti tank blocks e08420 http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...psed241566.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps1781ca1b.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps87ac1611.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps415f5f28.jpg Anti tank blocks e08419 (also post holes not in original entry) http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps35ad330c.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps5f76cf9a.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps3167d593.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps8f7a724c.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...psbd8eefe3.jpg Anti tank blocks e08418 (database entry is wrong - there are 7 blocks and none show any sign of having slipped, also two post holes in the towpath) The blocks run in a diagonal line down to river level. All are the same design as the others along this stretch of canal and too overgrown to get decent photos. http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps87889d21.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps0f54f779.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps1a66745b.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...psbe808c1e.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...pscc3564fa.jpg Type 22 pillbox e03446 http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps9f5eeeb9.jpg Type 22 pillbox e03445 http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...psbca79af6.jpg Type 22 pillbox e04983 http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...psff379344.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...pse9d86897.jpg Defended building e01265 http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps681045b5.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps554280ce.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...psaac72eaa.jpg Defended building e01266 http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...psf62c5cc0.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...ps07da4895.jpg |
