Saw a really interesting programme last night on the archaeology of WW2 British defences. There are pillboxes, tank traps etc all over Britain ready for the German invasion. I have even seen them around Aberdeenshire. There is a fine pillbox near Tillyfourie, one at Fyvie and I know I've seen another further north. These were part of a stop-line where we would confront and hold the invaders. Has anyone else seen any?
The programme is on Channel 4 player at http://www.channel4.com/video/brandless-catchup.jsp?vodBrand=the-real-dads-army

I've seen them in lots of places, and my nephews always point them out too. I think there were lots where I used to live and I have seen one on the way to Leith Hall.
