Here's a photo I took the other day of some world war 2 tank traps that are in the bush about half way up Stockton Beach.
Anyone else been up there for a ride and come across them.

Not something I would like to greet at high speed, worst thing here in Tassy is the exposed mine shafts down the coast,

They left over from the war matie, I think its great coming across things like this unexpected thanx for posting, To this day i still find bullets and casings after windy stormy days out there at anna bay end, Found 2 live Shell's side by side out there about 9 months ago now when i was walking the dogs, they were uncover by a storm the previous night, bout 1 foot long 100mm width with bomb head / war head still attached and could even make out the 1 millimeter numbers running around perimeter of 1 of them, other 1 had extensive corrosion to it, rang the local cops and they came out to take care of it,
