You can get a bit too much of a good thing - there were hundreds of anti tank cubes on the walk to the battery.

More lovely stuff, would love to have a trip up there one day. Thanks bobblehead.
 
That's very good. Although I can't see why there is an unstable building because it was there to withstand shelling.
 
It's amazing what salt water can do to the iron in quickly built/poured reinforced concrete...

Quite right and the vegetation on the roof does not help matters, just retains the moisture for longer. The interior ceiling was starting to show severe spalling cracks in the late 70's, so there could be some quite large chunks ready to fall, if disturbed. In many coastal locations beach shingle was used for the concrete and the salt content did not help matters long term - but it was the 'short term' that our forebears were worrying about, not leaving a monument to posterity!
