Emerging Pillbox
Emerging Pillbox
As well as a line of tank traps, the wartime defences along Burghead Bay included a series of pillboxes. This one, just appearing as the tide falls, is now well down in the intertidal zone because the sea has encroached so far into the land in the seven decades since the war ended.
