Geocache Description:

War Bunker

The Borough of Kenfig has its roots firmly set in history from it castle to the North raided by Vikings and the buried city lying beneath its sands and now an internationally recognised Nature Reserve
Sker beach is one of the truly unspoilt sand beaches in Wales having no road access it remains untouched from developing hands. There has been industry here though, from a sand and gravel works in front of "Sands of Time 1" to the long "Haul Road" tracking parallel to the beach used during the late 60s and early 70s to supply enormous boulders to build the new Steel Works Harbour in Port Talbot. The base of the road still remains but is slowly being reclaimed by nature.

Many years ago when I was young this was fully exposed and a play room for creative minds. Many a battle against invading foe was carried out here. There used to be a series of these along the coast all claimed by the sand and this one now has only the right hand corner of what used to be a two floor bunker. There is one remaining example across the river towards the steel works and is placed in a blow out at an angle - a bit like the famous Tower of Pisa.

The cache was placed with the kind permission of the Nature Reserve Warden - Mr David Carrington.
