The German army plan of the area
The plan is not very easy to read. The red line is the railway.
The next set of of bunkers are possibly in the area of the 1./AR.149.
Two Abri (shelters), one may be a kitchen and the other quarters for the cooks.
This is where they are.
An allied aerial photo the battery position.
An aerial photo of what I think is the position of 1./A.R.149.
1st battery 149th Artillery Regiment. You can see the four gun positions laid out and the straight lines are command cables buried in the ground.
The first Abri (shelter)
The white oblong in the air photo is where these Abri are located.
Some say it may have been a kitchen? There is a large chimney vent in the roof.
Inside the first room with a large vent in the roof.
Looking out.
The second Abri.
This one is more of a shelter as it has a much stronger roof and covered in earth.
The room.
There may be more here?
