If we went in... What was the melt bottle thing you said?

Oh, so they used phosphorus bombs, which they put in...

what looked like milk bottles.

So they're still dug up all the time now because the Home Guard had them as well.

But they're basically 15, 20 milk bottles in a crate.

But they've got a slightly yellowy tinge and phosphorus acts with the air.

So they're incredibly dangerous.

If one smashes, then you're screwed.

Yeah, so they're basically a bit like Molotov cocktails.

yeah so it's a bit have you had any accidents has anyone ever sort of no not with us they had lots of accidents during the war people's hands were blown off and yeah i read about it and because it was secret they um at least one example they couldn't get the army pension because they weren't officially right yeah yeah so he died two hands died and couldn't get the uh and get the army pension

I think we need to have a search around, see if we can see any... Yeah, what are you looking for now?

We're looking for kind of good sites.

So water tank, we've got, tick.

A kind of shape...

entrance we've got so now we're looking for kind of uh the vent pipe so it's like um earthenware glazed pipes um which are usually uh associated with it and if we can see any kind of corrugated well it's elephant iron you see any earthen iron about that's a good clue as well so that's that's what we need that's the next step what we're looking for now and some kind of escape tunnel although like the one at branscombe it's um i'm always obsessed with this escape tunnel bit

Would you say the escape tunnel could be on this edge here?

Yeah, I'd say, because basically you want it running down the hill.

Yeah.

And then you can go across the field or follow that trackway by the hedge and get away that way.

No, no, it's lookout posts, you said.
