In a field, to the
west of the junction of the B3151 and the road to Podimore village, just
north of RNAS Yeovilton, lie two Type 24 pillboxes. The one above is
overgrown at the front and sides and faces south-east (169 deg.) The
box appears to be used as a store.

To the west of the previous
box is this Type 24.

In the picture above you
can see how the concrete around the top of the structure has
eroded, the exposed tips of the concrete reinforcing rods can be seen pointing
skyward.
The box faces south-west (210
deg.). There is a third Type 24 in the corner of the field to the east
of the B3151/Podimore road junction but
it is hidden from view.
