Earlier in the week I visited this long line of pillboxes and defences along the banks of Freiston Shore nature reserve banks near Boston, Lincolnshire. It is basically a long line of defences stretching from the RSPB visitor centre along to the North Sea Camp open prison, through which the footpath runs.

I know nothing about pillboxes, or whatever these structures are, hopefully someone will educate me...

On with the pics..:)
