Was in the area after visiting orford ness and being just down the road would be rude not to have a look, visited with Tankman

The post was open when subbrit visited with the post pretty clean inside and just some minor chav damage, but since then the post has been sealed and become very overgrown, an orlit B stands alongside

Inside

Whats odd is that the owner has gone to a lot of trouble to seal the post as the cap if very heavy and has a metal hook in so must have been lifted on by some sort of crane, so its a proffesional job. Its very overgrown and Tankman tryed but could not find the FSM or BPI pipes, dont bother visiting this post unless your in the area.
