 Re :- The summer house / pillbox.

 

Whilst asking around about this, one the kids said they remember it's upper half having a painted,  mock-Tudor (Oak beams & Plaster) finish.

This struck a chord with me. Does anyone else remember this ?

 

Cheers &

All the best,

Frank,

I don't remember the mock tudor finish, but this was from the early to late 1980's.  I'm fairly sure that there was a photo in the Bournemouth Echo of it when the site was being cleared.

The Cemetery entrance looks great, (if you know what I mean), and also the public toilets !!!

Sam,

Nice work. I really love the back scene.

Great layout love the viaducts.

Not quite dragon's teeth, but I was always fascinated by the pill box at cemetery junction that was painted to look like a summer house.  (above the tunnel, right at the junction between Wimbourne road and Landsdowne road.)

Don't know if that was the original scheme or if it had been changed post war. It was there early 80's but gone now, beacame a block of flats.

Wow, this is a quite a project, love to see this develop. 

Only one problem with the background, it's not raining !!!! (the old joke if you can't see Conwy mountain it's raining etc.)

Great work
