- Battle Headquarters: EDoB ID: e01143 Defences in the shape of a Battle HQ along with at least three brick lined fire trenches exist in the garden of a farmhouse. For the safety of inquisitive children, all the fire trenches have been covered over, leaving just the Battle HQ. This is a conventional type whose observation cupola is all that is revealed above ground. Below is an underground bunker containing several rooms whose entrance has been sealed. Image
