The remains of a World War II strong post, or 'pillbox' set in the top of the massive pebble ridge skirting Porlock Beach about 9 metres above OD and 10 metres West of Porlock Weir quay. It has clear views of Porlock Bay and the Bristol Channel from Hurlstone Point in the East to The Gore in the West. The basic construction is of breeze blocks and concrete with outer face lined with large beach pebbles. The pillbox has collapsed on its North side due to the shingle being washed away and the whole inside is now filled with shingle.
