Pillbox (type FW3/22): DoB ID: e11711

Interior view showing the suspended anti-ricochet wall that only comes down to about halfway between ceiling and floor. To the left is the Turnbull machine gun mount seen from outside in the previous photo. Each embrasure appears to be enumerated with odd numbered Roman numerals - the reason for this is unknown.
