ST2645 : Beach and brick structure, west of Steart

Beach and brick structure, west of Steart
Beach and brick structure, west of Steart
The brick platform doesn't show on the maps. It probably dates from the 1940s and may have been an observation post. Possibly it was a gun emplacement but it looks a bit too flimsy for that. The beach here is sandy. Further down it there is a line of pebbles and beyond that is the famous Bristol Channel mud. Discernible at the far left are two birdwatchers. It started raining soon after I took this photograph.
