Steeped in history and dating back to World War II, this concrete blockhouse and observation post played a crucial role in coastal defense during those tumultuous times. Strategically positioned at the entrance of Blyth's bustling harbor, this imposing structure served as an artillery pillbox, safeguarding against potential threats from enemy forces. Its robust construction stands as a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of those who built it.
