A line of anti-invasion defences, known as the Rhos Llangeler stop line, was constructed during the Second World War between Llangrannog and Pembrey. There are several branches, the defences include anti-tank ditches, tank obstacles, roadblocks, mine fields (now cleared) and numerous pill boxes, where suitable natural features such as steep slopes and rivers also formed part of the defences.
Although not a Pillbox, this structure still formed an important part of the defence of the local area. It is known as the St Ishmael's Scar Beach Defence Gun House, built for WW2 it is a gun emplacement and used to containin a 4-inch QF breach beach defence gun, rectangular plan with ammunition recesses in the South wall and gun loops in the East and South walls.
