North Wales WWII defences: Holyhead, Anglesey - Ynys Peibio pillbox (3)
-
Pillbox (variant): DoB ID: S0011350
The pillbox is in a fragmentary condition making it difficult to interpret, but it would appear that it originally was a non-defensive structure that was subsequently modified during WW2 with concrete reinforcement containing embrasures with loopholes.
