A row of three identical World War 2 section posts can be found along the edge of the Seal Sands nature reserve.
The most northerly is open at both ends, although its view has been blocked by a later bank, internally some concrete shelves remain along the walls.
The central post is similarly blocked by a large bank.
The most southerly post retains its outside views although some attempts have been made to block the doorways.
Due to land reclamation they are now inland, but would have overlooked a much larger Seal Sands during World War 2

very interesting are they structurally sound?
Very much so, built to last.
hi wood it be posible to metal detect
No idea, you would need to speak to the owners.
as a boy i regularly went shooting in this area,1958 on.these structures stood on the sea wall,which is made of slag.a material which i imagine would make metal detecting impossible
is permission needed to get on to the land this is on, or any of the surrounding field areas?
