Full description
Passmore, A. + Knight, S., 2009, Farm Environment Plan (FEP), Updated Spreadsheet of Archaeological Sites (Un-published). SDV344664.
Visted 2009. A group of three concrete posts at a high point on a dune south of J Lane, probably erected to stop vehicle access. The posts are of two designs, with the outer posts having pyramidical tops and the central post having a ridged top. The posts measure approx. 0.15 metre by 0,15 metre by up to 0.60 metre high. Almost certainly of modern (i.e. post-World War II date).
The reinforcing bars on the central post are partially exposed, and are corroding causing cracking of the surrounding concrete. Other details: Site 6.
Unknown, 2010, Farm Environment Plan (FEP), Shapefiles of Archaeological Sites (Un-published). SDV344665.
