Full Description
A dispersed group of bare earth features and structures are visible on aerial photographs taken in 1946 across a wide area to the south of East Lulworth in the vicinity of the features described in MDO31777 (1). They are considered likely to be shell holes and structures of uncertain military function dating to the early 20th century. The features are no longer visible on recent Google Earth imagery; they were digitally plotted during the Wild Purbeck Mapping Project.
