Artillery Observation Post near Matilda Hospital [????- ]

In good condition, although the entrance is partially blocked due to a small landslip outside the entrance.   Separate concrete object on ground level approx 2m to the east of bunker - by appearance could be a second airvent, in addition to standard airvent on top of bunker.   Approx 2m to rear still remains a trench, and then another trench 2m to the rear of that one.
