Description

An archaeological monitoring was carried out along the coastline immediately east of East Lane, Bawdsey, Suffolk. This recorded a WWII hexagonal Type 22 pillbox and six 20th century east-west aligned groynes. The pillbox was largely undamaged, whilst only the structural elements of the groynes survived. Many of the groynes that were scheduled to be recorded had been removed prior to the archaeological visit.
