Pillbox (Type FW3/24): DoB ID: S0006160
Almost all the extant pillboxes on the Wirral have their embrasures and entrances blocked, this example off Station Road, Parkgate being typical. Since photographed by Jeff Buck in 2016 https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5202317 it has had louvred panels fitted over some of the embrasures. Situated on high ground in a country park, it covers the road from the Dee Estuary near to where a bridge once carried the old railway line over Station Road.
