WWII Lancashire: Leeds & Liverpool Canal: Maghull (1)

Pillbox: DoB ID: S0011743
Soon after the outbreak of the Second World War, lines of defence or Stop-Lines were created all over the country in anticipation of invasion by the enemy forces of Nazi Germany. In Lancashire the Leeds & Liverpool Canal was chosen as one such line of defence in the event of a landing by German forces at Formby. This is the beginning of a series of linked photos taken along the Leeds & Liverpool Canal of some of the more interesting defensive structures that are still in existence today.
Two-storey block houses are not uncommon on the canal, this example at Melling on the outskirts of Maghull overlooks the canal and bridge. A brick built structure, the top four courses above the embrasures along with the 6in concrete roof are now missing. Access to the top storey would have been by 'Jacob's Ladder', with the lower floor used for storage.
Update 2021: I've received information that this pillbox has now been demolished.
