Base XV, Position 2, Picture 8

 

- The above and especially the picture on the left side gives you the idea, how the place generally speaking looked like, after riding with horses in the area. The pit on the ground might be a remain from a shelter, but because the edges are so worn out, it's nearly impossible to say.

- Another defensive structure in the horseracing track. Badly damaged, it's hard to say what it has been. The nearby area is completely worn out from riding and there's really no traces from the trench line left, which would connect this position to the whole position 2. Wild guess would be that this is a Type B position, which is badly damaged.
