At the end of that track deep in the forest, shown in my second image of this week’s Thursday’s Special, stood this:

You were right, Sue. No Maginot fort in Beetley!
It would be good to have one to explore. I have to make do with an old pill-box near Hoe!
Best wishes, Pete.
Well, I only stepped inside, as I had no torch or rope! But I would have loved to have gone through those passages deep inside!
Rather you than me!
Oh, well, I was always the adventurous sort…but tempered with caution!
So beautifully period.
Thanks, Meg! Yo mean the sepia treatment?
This looks more romantic with your framing. Decay is so much more interesting to shoot than “intact” structures. Thank you, Sue. I like your choice of sepia.
Glad you like it, Paula!

Love your interpretation!
Thanks, Anna!
If I came across this unexpectedly in the forest, not knowing what it was, I don’t think I’d be too happy!
Oh dear, Gilly!
Ah-ha! There was me expecting Hansel and Gretel 🙂
Oh come on, Jo….you should know me better than that! 😀😀
Tongue in cheek 🙂

It looks like an old places where couple would gather, but of course the reality was quite something different. Beautifully framed and processed.
Glad you like it, Otto
so evocative, There is something so poignant when you realize the history!
Absolutely! I read of this place on an Internet site back in 2009
I like that!!
..and set off to find it
