- Pillbox (unclassified): DoB ID: e24909 Poole - Poole Quay Pillbox. Of unknown type, this is the closest view I could get without trespassing and getting torn to shreds by a sea of brambles! It sits behind a wall on a derelict patch of land behind Poole Quay and appears to be built mainly of concrete. It has parallel brick-built entrance walls containing steps down to a protected entrance doorway. The steps cannot be seen however as apart from the brambles, they are currently hidden under a quantity of soil between the walls. Image
