Hello out there i am interested in finding what Regiments manned the Blockhouse at Angle? i am looking for a birth date of James Robert Brown born 1880 in Winlaton Newcastle but moved to Angle and served as a master gunner at the blockhouse from about 1900 for approx 25 years he was recalled during WW2 to act again as a gunner? he also married a local girl named Florence Vaughn i can find no record of the marriage nor his DOB. If i can find the regiment i can do a millitary records search. Thanks Alex Swadling Perth Australia (bit more than a bike ride away)

I seem to recall from many years ago when I was at school in Milford Haven, that a book on the history of the various fortifications of the Haven had been published. No doubt this would have had a lot of information about the Angle blockhouse. Unfortunately I can't recall the title although I suspect that the Pembs RO or the County Library would have a copy.
