Three anti-tank blocks, part of a World War Two roadblock, stand adjacent to the southeast of the A487 road near the top of Bwlch Llyn Bach. The blocks are made of local stone set in a concrete matrix and each measures about 1.6m x 1.6m x 1.6m. Some 12m to the southwest, a short section of bullhead rail protrudes from the roadside bank. Opposite the blocks two pieces of angle iron, set in concrete, protrude from the northern roadbank. Above these, in line with the three blocks and some 10m from the road edge, is a trench, approximately 10m long, cut along the steep slope and embanked on the side overlooking the road.
Some 85m to the southwest, on the northern side of the road, are the eroded remains of another anti-tank block, constructed in similar style to the other three.
