In the foreground planks have been removed from the pier to prevent it from being used as a landing stage, with a temporary footbridge providing access to the lifeboat station at its end. To the left of centre is a Type 22 pillbox camouflaged as an ice cream stand. Above it on the walkway is an additional gun emplacement. A second pillbox is built into the sea wall immediately to the right of the pier. RAF photography.
