183 x anti-tank cylinders standing in line from the Doddington Road to the SE corner of the cemetery. The line is divided into two groups, one of 173 cylinders and one of 10 cylinders. Local information suggests that the line was once continuous. All cylinders have a central hole, and steel reinforcement is visible on some. Ex-situ. The cylinders were put in their present position shortly after the end of the war. Original location unknown.
