I was lucky to be given access to this new restoration project , here in Guernsey its a M19 automatic mortar bunker that has remained covered up until recently, the doors and internal fittings were removed in the 1947 scrap drive, but you can stil make out the internal writing on the wall.

Its great to see this one in such good condition, when I went to Jersey in 1988 I spent a lot of time looking round the fortifications there and was amazed at how much rubbish and graffiti there was.
