Near Weycroft mill, we come to the first of two Type 22 pillboxes.  This type is relatively rare on the Taunton Stop Line.

[SY 30776 99928]

Facing north-west (309 deg.) towards the mill buildings, the structure has block external, and brick internal, shuttering.  The roof's internal shuttering was corrugated iron.

The entrance with single loophole to the left.

 


 

To the west of the previous structure, these anti-tank cubes line the east bank of the River Axe at Weycroft.
