Adur in 1940

I’m working on a personal photography project which I’ve named Loopholes which focuses on the 1940 wartime defences that remain intact in Sussex. My recent work is around the banks of the river Adur in Shoreham and the south coast.

Above is the small, low slung machine-gun position on Lancing beach which now is overlooked by the more contemporary beach huts. The shingle has swamped this emplacement but it remains largely intact.

This is one of the infantry pillboxes along the east bank of the river Adur. A fine example of a second world war pillbox that is still in position after 85 years.
