Forums Forums Wirral History : Chasing the Past Wirral History Eastham Pillbox

Here are some pictures of the remaining Pillbox at Eastham, strangely the area had seven Allan Williams' turrets but only two pill boxes.

Born and bred in Eastham but I have no idea where that is.....Tell me more...Please!

It is one of the few sites that is exactly where it is recorded as being - fooled me, they are normally about 200 yds away, I found it when I was looking for simething else ....

From eastham go down rivacre road nearly 200 yards(just past the hotel thing), there is a field gate on the left to a slightly overgrown treelined drive with more gates, down there nearly 100 yards, pillbox is on the corner of field.

This driveway appears to be the end of a railway line that linked up all the hootn/ellesmere port front lands. Part of it was used for the M53

this is behind the old glider hotel i think?
