Great pics. Presumably that last one is of one of the anchor points for the lattice masts? any other signs of these at all?
 
Great pics mate. Theres a chain radar at corton just down the coast from where I live in norfolk. Have been meaning to do an explore for a long while. I specially liked the Ivy growing round the window.
 
Yes thanks for that one mate. Any idea what used to be up on Rhosilly downs? theres concrete bases with bit of what looks like armour plate and bricks but not much else.

I think it was a gun emplacement for sea defence, there are some at Mumbles too, up on the hill opposite the apple. Just out of interest, whereabouts in Oxwich was this place? (I want to add it to my list of WWII places on google earth).

More info on Mumbles here
