No idea where it is mate but the DoB has it co-located with the pillbox. I'd take a machete and have good rummage, let me know if you find it :)
 
hi just to report i went to this pill box again the other day to try and get into it but to no avail as they have sealed it shut with steel plating on the gun ports and also the main door but i think i saw an anti-tank barrier near it.

it was a sort ofa big round concrete object with a piece of metal pipe sticking out of the top but it was all coved in weeds and brambles so couldnt get to it which was a shame :(

might be a spigot mortar base
 
sorry just googled that and no it deffo was not one of those the metal pipe also had like a metal loop next to it?
 
The place is not that far from me to go and get some photo's but I'm not going to be able to get down there for another week or so. looking at how far the box is in the ground I can see why it is sealed off, plus it stops smackheads useing it.:)
 
I expect the round thing is the Cylinder listed in the DoB I mentioned above.
 
This is the only photo I have of Cylinders :)
