However, it’s the clifftop Fire Control Post observation bunker which attracts the most attention here. Overhanging the 100m high cliffs due to years of erosion, the front observation area of the large bunker looks precariously balanced and access to it isn’t recommended.
The reason the FCP hasn’t crashed down to the beach below is because it’s just one small part of a much larger building which – for now – is firmly rooted to the cliffs, keeping the whole structure in place.
This bunker features the observation and range finding room at the front with further rooms behind for an office, plotting and computing rooms, a communications centre, and officer/troop room.
Please note, the cliff area is very dangerous and the pathway to the FCP is right on the cliff edge and so access is forbidden. Our sH๏τs were taken from a safe distance via our drone. The other buildings are all on private land and permission must be sought before visiting.

HKB Heuqueville is one seriously cool WWII bunker that looks like it popped straight out of a sci-fi movie! Nestled on cliffs that rise a whopping 100 meters (about 328 feet) above sea level, this place has been around long enough for the elements to really wear it down, leaving it hanging precariously. With its smooth, modern vibe, you might think you’re in some futuristic film rather than standing in front of a historical defense site. But, fair warning – it’s a bit of a nail-biter to visit since it’s not exactly stable and could give way at any moment!
