Wardy Hill Cambridgeshire - Type FW3/22 S0004915
Wouldn't normally have bothered posting this, but I'm curious about something and wondered if anyone can shed light on it?
Bog standard FW3/22 sat in the middle of a field. The door is blocked and it's slap bang in the middle of a field full of cows, so I do didn't try and gain entry to avoid annoying the farmer. In all of the loopholes, there were wooden blocks, which look pretty ancient and seem to fit the grooves down the sides of the holes. Are these an original feature? Some sort of gun rest? Or just a farmer's attempt to board it up which happened to fit the grooves neatly?
Close-up.
