Two machine gun nests, accommodation area for a half-platoon and observation cupola.

237 degrees and 30 degrees.

State of readiness (1942)

The cupola has been cast, two gas tight interior doors, ventilator and two machine gun mountings are missing. Air hoses have not been completed.

Some 150m3 stone paving is missing from the front wall. Cupola is missing. Hole for the cupola is ready.

Note

The remark about renovating the bunker, can be found also from the fortification card for the structure 224, a & b. There are no visible traces of the renovating these bunkers. Additionally the description part from 1955 mentions, that the ventilation and heating system will be installed in 1955. There are no traces from this either. 

Dated: 11.9.1942 & 28.3.1955

- The first inventory in the Harparskog-line was made in 1942, when the Finnish Defence Forces made the first fortification cards for the structures in Harparskog-line. In 1955 the structures in the defensive line were inspected once again and at that time, description part for the original fortification cards were made. The description from 1955 gives very detailed information about the structures, as there's even a full inventory what should be in the structures and what is missing.

- Notes are based on my own personal observations in the defensive line during the years 2005 & 2006.
