An arc of four brick and concrete magazines are situated about 30m to the rear of the four gun-emplacement. All are rectangular with brick built blast walls at the entrances. They are about 6m in height and measure on average 12.5m by 5.2m overall.
The magazines are visible on RAF vertical air photographs (58[A] 386, Pt.1, 5456-5458, flown 21 May 1948).
