Full description
October 2002. Norfolk NMP.
The marker is in the form of a light coloured arrow, with a length of approximately 13m (S1). The arrow is pointing north into The Wash, and may be directing planes towards a wreck (NHER 27758), although there were a range of targets within The Wash. The building is presumably where the target can be stored and the man can sit whilst on target duty.
M. Brennand (NMP), 1 October 2002.
