Tilbury Pillbox

10 January 202110 January 2021 By Joe Mander

Situated around a mile west from Coalhouse Fort, this Lozenge pillbox has been the victim of coastal erosion. Once sitting on the Essex marshes it now lies half sunken into the earth and half resting on the sand below. Inside, the pillbox is quite spacious and even has some of the original shutters and shutter mounts remaining. It also has two gun mounts surviving.

High Royds ☠️ High Royds was once one of the High Royds ☠️

High Royds was once one of the most infamous asylums in the country, having opened in 1885. Following the closure of the site in 2003, the buildings were later converted into housing although the mortuary still remains derelict.
