Pillbox on Argoed Road
There are no internal structures inside the box. The window slots (known as "loopholes") look wider than most other photos of similar pillboxes that I can find.
The flat roof has accumulated enough organic debris to support young trees growing on it. The inside is filling up with leaves and rubbish (both litter and fly-tipped bags) such that most of the doorway at the rear is blocked.
This pillbox seems to be a well kept secret. It was not included in the 2006 updated Defence of Britain Archive and at the time of submission seems to be unknown in either of its more official successors: Dyfed Archaeological Trust's Archwilio database or the Royal Commission's Coflein database. Nor does it appear in the Pillbox Study Group's December 2013 Extended D.O.B database.
