This cache is placed opposite the site of one of the many cement works that produced cement to build the WW2 Mulberry Harbours and other WW2 structures; perhaps including the two pillboxes on the other side of the river.

As a boy I remember watching the cement trains running between here and the main railway line a few hundred yards to the south. Part of the railway line is still there; on the way to the nearby WW2 Rail Block cache. Unfortunately, the track running alongside the nearby river has long gone.

Lots of information on pillboxes and other WW2 defences may be found here: (visit link)
