1940 Roadblock S. RD 51. E Brigade Sector. (The 1940 map shows the position of the roadblock as at the railway bridge to the W of Axe Bridge itself. The field evidence indicates there was certainly a block at Axe Bridge: perhaps there was more than one block at this Location, with the Axe Bridge block being added later - further documentary evidence gives the roadblock name as Axe Farm, indicating that a site to the W of Axe Bridge is correct).
