I went for a little walk a couple of weeks ago from Tai Tam to Shek O. Along the way I took a couple of photos of the Pillbox right on the waters edge opposite Red Hill.

Right behind the Pillbox was another military structure. This one was much smaller with space for one maybe two at a squeeze. It might have been the lookout or for a spot light.
