Full Description

Melton Grange, near Woodbridge. The patrol’s OB was built into the side of a sandpit located in the grounds of Melton Park. The park was bounded by Bredfield Road in the west and by Pytches Road in the south. The whole area has since been redeveloped and extensively landscaped, with a new housing estate having been built over it. No trace remains of the OB (S2).
