It struck me as an unusual place to install these things? Perhaps they were expecting invading Nazi troops to make their way up the River Test under the cover of darkness and unload their equipment inland, thus avoiding costal defences?
Does anyone know of any other WW2 relics in the Totton area? Let me know in the comments section below.

Many air raid shelters still remain in the Totton area. Most obvious is the bright green building by the footbridge on the bypass. Also a pair of pill boxes at Redbridge, under the bridge on the Salisbury line.
