Located approximately halfway down the cul-de-sac Zonnebeekseweg, are the remnants of a concrete shelter.
Located opposite was Red Tiled House and built into this was an observation post known as RAOP No.11 and built by the engineers of the Royal Monmouthshire Regiment in 1916. It was demolished in the 1970’s and was replaced by the modern house you see today.
The concrete shelter, forming a small chamber with several doorways, is made of poorly cast concrete and brick work masonry. It may have been part of the observation post that stood opposite however, it may well have been a later addition built by artillery troops.
