Full Description

Probable Modern military features of unknown function are visible as structures on aerial photographs taken from 1944 onwards, centred on TM 28323169 just at the southern end of Right Battery at Landguard Fort, Felixstowe. There are five almost identical rectangular structures arranged in a row and measuring on average 5m by 3m. The features are visible in the same location from April to September 1944 but appear to have been removed or buried by October 1945. (S1) (S2)
