Full Description
March 2015. Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty National Mapping Programme.
Parchmarks of four possible former gun emplacements which may have been associated with the 'Diver' HAA site to the east (SHER ADB 200) are visible on aerial photographs (S1) to the west of Leiston Road, Aldeburgh. It is likely that these parchmarks relate to temporary gun emplacements, and since it was not possible to identify any more diagnostic emplacements similar to those recorded to the south as part of SHER ADB 039, it was considered that this site may have been the gun emplacements that relate to the accommodation site (SHER ADB 200).
E. Ford (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 6th March 2015.
