Bazz Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 A couple of questions from the ignorant, how do you know that this is a Vickers MG bunker? are they built to a certain design? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferretfixer Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Looks in good enough tcondition to be lifted out with a crane.......:cool2: Wouldnt that be nice if it was saved to stand outside a Museum, Brenzett perhaps? Mike. (PS:I have NO connenction to this Museum, but I notice it has a massive grounds area where this would sit VERY nicely, & is not too far from Camber) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxell Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 A couple of questions from the ignorant, how do you know that this is a Vickers MG bunker? are they built to a certain design? I guessed! and was correct and had it confirmed by someone with some experience with these. If you check the other threads i posted a pillbox in Horsebridge which is very similar to this. What could make this Camber pillbox more interesting is that it could have been built later than any of the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
