Summary

Description
English: WW2 pillbox at Freewarren Bridge near Crofton This type FW3/22 pillbox stands close to Freewarren Bridge and to the north of a drainage ditch (seen here), the main railway line and the Kennet & Avon Canal. Originally, the pillbox was one of one hundred and seventy built hastily in 1940 to create 'GHQ stop-line Blue' running for 58 miles between Bradford-on-Avon and Tilehurst. The view looks eastwards and the chimney of Crofton pumping station can be seen in the background.
