The Alnwick to Cornhill Railway still has this in situ and I took a photo of it on a trip out the other day.

And here's one...
They may be just "humble Anti-Tank Blocks" plenty of them on the Northumberland Coast, but
Regards Neil....They can be found inland as well as on the coast.
Anti-tank blocks are almost always associated with defences of the Second World War; whilst tank warfare was used in the First World War, it was a late war technology and therefore anti-tank defences were not considered as part of World War One defensive landscapes in Britain.
Anti-tank cubes are the most common type of these defences; usually 3ft x 3ft or 5ft x 5ft in dimension.
