Aylesford Pillbox - Kent ( Nr Aylesford bridge )


Aylesford

                                           Date:  July
                                           Location: Aylesford
                                           Abandoned or Public : Abandoned
                                           Delmoished:  No 



While I was searching for pillboxes in the Maidstone area, I decided to check on maps to see what I could find. I came across this pillbox and another one nearby. Unfortunately, this pillbox has been filled with loads of rubbish, which detracts from its charm. 


It is located on a public footpath near Aylesford Bridge. Although I'm unsure of its exact style, I can assume that it was used in WWII and probably built around 1940-1941, similar to most other pillboxes from that time.
