Looking for pillbox #72

Monday's walk was one of those 'it's the journey, not the destination' outings. In theory I was going to find the location of pillbox 72, but in any case it was lovely weather, and a good excuse to scramble over some rocks.

Pillbox 072 [1939-????]

Date Place completed: 
1939-01-01

The coastal pillboxes were numbered anti-clockwise around HK island, from 1 to 72, so this was the one with the highest number.

The map is not very clear, so the location is only an estimate. If it is still there, it should be visible from the ferry to Lamma - I'll take a look next time I head out that way.

If you have any memories or photos of how this looked, please leave a comment below.
