- Anti-tank Block: DoB ID: S0000117 The largest concentration of surviving anti-tank cubes are to be found in a plot of waste ground behind a former deer park. Ten of the fifteen blocks can be seen in the above photo. They were once part of a series of cubes to the northwest of the town that followed a line to the south that joined a 280 metre long anti-tank ditch. Image
