This trail includes thirteen pillboxes over a distance of around five miles (8 km). There are three different types including an artillery version which was designed to house a six-pounder (2.7 kg) gun from the First World War! In the winter months there may be a distant view of two spigot mortar or anti-tank gun emplacements. A pair of binoculars might be handy here. There is no fixed route; the public footpaths along which the pillboxes stand provide a variety of walking choices. At the easternmost point, Littley Green and the village pub may offer a convenient stopping off place.
