Large rectangular concrete pillbox.
(Source: Field Visit 1993)
Remarkable large, square, concrete structure, open at the centre, with embrasures in each face. There are 8 embrasures in the E face, and presumably a similar number in the other faces, making a total of some 36 embrasures. Its relation to the nearby pillbox UORN 6049 is not understood. No access - private land protected by barbed wire and security patrols.
