4 targets in tonight’s mission. I will be coming in from the East then circling anti-clockwise back towards base.

You've got something well defended on your doorstep, including a bombing decoy site - check out the stop lines and beach defences!

Churchill's beach hut?

It was a successful mission.

Well overgrown pillbox near to Felley Priory in Notts. SK 48207 50541 if anyone is interested. The ride was supposed to visit 4 that I know of but first two are now on private land (RAF Watnall, makes for interesting reading) and the whole area surrounding the third was completely overgrown with nettles, I don’t mind the odd sting but when it’s 4’ deep that’s too much.

Recently acquired galaxy, carried me over and into the ordnance staff site air raid shelters: Still got the wooden benches. One for the ladies' galaxies too!

Amazing! That’s huge. Good to see it’s not littered with rubbish too

14 miles to get there but 4 within a grenade throw of each other. One was through a farmers gate so couldn’t get a photo.
