Compare and contrast

Compare and contrast the condition of these two Second World War coastal gun battery sites at Studland; two of several I'd add, although there is no trace of the others.  The top one is up on Redend Point, in front of Fort Henry, still in very good condition, even sporting evidence its original camouflage. Whereas the second photo is all the remains of an identical (I assume, as the army usually worked from standard Ministry of Works designs, unless tactical or geographical considerations necessitated otherwise) Second World War coastal gun battery situated amongst the back of the dunes beyond Knoll Beach. The former is where on April 18th 1944 military, political and royal dignitaries including Winston Churchill, King George VI and General Dwight D. Eisenhower watched life fire exercise 'Smash' the largest live fire exercise of the whole war. Whereas the later was 'in' the area of the largest life fire exercise of the whole war. Enough said.
