SEX73854 - An Appraisal of the Concrete Bunker in ECC Highways Depot at Thorrington, Essex

This large, concrete bunker stands in a working yard at the junction of two roads immediately south of a level crossing traversing the railway line from Colchester to Clacton-on-Sea and Walton-on-the-Naze. It measures 19’ x 16’6”, semi-sunken, with 3’3” showing above ground level. The roof is almost flat although part of it slopes down from south to north such that the north side is 2’ 6” high. On the east side, six steps lead down to an open full-height entrance.
