Hadleigh Castle 

Date:  24 -07-2020 

Location:  Hadleigh 

Current state:  Ruins 

We were out exploring the area as places started to reopen, so we decided to visit Hadleigh Castle. I was slightly disappointed because I wouldn't really describe it as a castle, but at least I can cross it off my English Heritage list. The castle was built in the 13th century and later became a favored retreat for Edward III.

This has to be one of the most haunting places I have ever visited, and I must say, I felt quite uneasy here, too. It is said that this eerie well has been abandoned since 1924.

There isn't much to say about this pillbox. It was given to us by another explorer, though we checked it out while we were on our way to another location. 

It is labeled as a type FW3/24 pillbox, which was built around 1940-1941 and used during the war.
