More from El Faro

Back up on the hills overlooking the Bay of Alicante on the edge of Santa Pola, an area that I always try and spend some time in. I found on this visit that the guard house/bunker protecting the heavy anti-fascist gun emplacements had been sprung open so I was able to get in. You get a real feel in the cramped space the working conditions of the republican forces billeted up here. I also stumbled across what looked like a massive crater close to the network of gun emplacements, barracks and bunkers. It was certainly not a natural shape. Looked like a near miss from the fascist planes as they motored overhead.
