It's been a beautiful summer so far. Any of the rest of you guys got snaps of any wartime sites found/visited? I keep feeling that Scotland generally, and Fife in particular, are like living museums when it comes to WW2 archaeology, but I know that can't be true. While I was in Dover looking for the hovercraft terminal, the clifftops were FULL of pillboxes, bunkers etc, so there must be loads of sites out there. I've got a list the length of your arm of sites I need to re-photograph-and that's just in central Scotland! I photographed dozens of them about 10-15 years ago, then gave the snaps to the Defence of Britain Project and assumed I'd subsequently lost the negatives. I found all the negatives last year, but there are nearly 300 and it's acually cheaper to re-photograph all the sites with the digital camera and save them onto CD-ROM.
Anyone got any pictures of stuff in their neck of the woods?
