these two pill boxes are in Blythburgh in suffolk, they two identical pill boxes. they would of both held two vickers guns (would of been awesomely powerful :D) iv wanted to go look at these for years but never got round to it they look awesome from the road. so me and a mate went and looked the other day.
it was deffinatly worth the visit they are in pretty good condition, although the blast wall has had some damage on one of them and access to the inside is limited, but the other has easy access and the interior is still intact.

Sweet, If I was a Nazi I would of just said "Lets not go on this field, we will just go on the one next to it that way we wont get shot" and strolled onwards to Blighty
