World War II - Anti-Aircraft Gun sites in Southwold? Posted on February 6, 2013 at 03:17:56 PM by Chris
I wonder if anyone can help? A friend at work was chatting to me about a letter he found when clearing his fathers house. It refers to his father working for the "20th Independent Construction Company" in WW2. He went all over the UK building anti-aircraft gun sites from as far north as Hull down to Dover. He made a special mention in this letter of being "sent to Southwold in Suffolk to build 8 anti-aircraft gun sites and other things to cope with the DooddleBug rockets". So I wondered, are any still in existance? Does anyone know of any possible locations for these?? Thank you in advance for any pointers. Replies:
