A couple of weeks ago I had to go to Kent on a flying visit to see my dad and on the way me and my son little Scrote stopped of in a lay-by for a quick fag before the visit and there to my delight was a pill box.Was in my Sunday best so no hope of wading through mud and nettles to explore further so sorry about the lousy photos

This is one of the CRE type 22 AA variants. You should have been able to see at least another 5 of them from there.
 
I wasn't really concentrating on pillboxes that day.I was on a visit to see my dad for the last time as the old fella has the big C.I took no notes with me and finding this box was just good luck.Looking on GE I now see what a wealth of stuff I was surrounded by......
 
sorry to hear about your dad, detlings bits have been there for a long time and I am sure they will still be there when you return.
 
sorry to hear about your dad mate in those circumstances I'll let you off with missing concrete goodies
 
Sorry to hear about your dad.

Yeah, My sentiments as well,

:idea:I would have thought someone with your experience would have had a pair of overalls and boots in the car at all times, just in case OS, or like me prepared to get a bollocking from the boss when I on occasions I come home with my shoes covered in shite, my clothes ripped in rags and scratched to buggery by sodding brambles!:lol: I enjoyed your post, Thanks.:)
