ND49NE 21 Centred 4743 9934

Two air-raid shelters survive on the N-facing slope of Glimps Holm to the SW of the Churchill Barrier (ND49NE 15). One is built of brick, the other brick and concrete. They are likely to have been used by Italian prisoners-of-war who were being used to assist in constructing the Churchill Barriers. Some 150m due E a tramway embankment can be traced running NE towards the barrier where is ends somewhere near the main road.
