Geocache Description:

This cache is named after the Dragon's Teeth anti-tank defences that were used during World War 2.

There are at least 10 Dragon's Teeth (actually, this type of defence block is called a Pimple) at this location. All of which are clearly visible.

Younger cachers, e.g. Lord Sussex and 'Leave No Stone Unturned', may find these great fun to climb on and jump off of. I still do!

Please note that there were a lot of stinging nettles (poisonous plant?) around when I laid this cache so you may need gloves to retrieve it. Please make sure that it is re-covered afterwards.

Lots of information on pillboxes and other WW2 defences may be found here: (visit link)
One piece of information is how to distinguish a Dragon's Tooth from a Pimple. (Thanks, Pete.)
