The Alun Williams
Turret was for airfield defence. Manned by two crew members with a Lewis
Gun,
who entered through the (now buried) entrance
tunnel which can be seen extending out to the
front-left. The turret could be rotated giving a
limitless field of view.
There were (apparently)
several of these turrets
around Harrowbeer. We have found three, this one
near the Bomb Store, another by the 'Rock', and one near Whistley Down.
We are also told that there were only ninety of these turrets installed
across the UK.
Please
wait while the picture loads.
