Two groups of World War II pillboxes in the north eastern and north western sectors of the former airfield of RAF Culmhead, Trickey Warren is a scheduled ancient monument comprising defensive structures erected during the Second World War. The pillboxes were constructed as part of the anti-invasion preparations undertaken across southern England following the threat of German invasion in 1940 and the subsequent years of conflict. These concrete structures represent the standard defensive architecture deployed at airfield perimeters to protect against potential ground attack. The site at Trickey Warren preserves evidence of the operational military infrastructure that supported RAF Culmhead as an active airfield during wartime.
