(2197) The OS has the bolt marked as destroyed in the early 1960s. No sign of pillbox, though stony debris does litter the ground. Leeds/Bradford Airport nearby - formerly Yeadon Aerodrome. Not a stretch to presume the pillbox was part of the WW2 defences for that.

Token visit, but at least it was an opportunity to see the trig pillar again. Plane spotters and discarded chip wrappings in abundance.

SE22 T098 BOLT. Reported destroyed 02/62. Concrete slab and debris to west side of pillar on track. Possibly the pillbox?
