A World War II gun emplacement is visible as an earthwork at TM47267102, to the south of Dunwich Forest, on 1945 aerial photographs (S1). It is located close to a military camp (DUN 044), and may well be associated with that, and is likely to have been a part of the World War II defences in this area.
