Monument record TQ 56 NW 340 - A Royal Observer Corps monitoring post.

A Royal Observer Corps monitoring post. The site is located (with the surface features intact) amongst some bushes on pastoral land 100 yards north of a footpath and east of Farnigham Fort close to Pedham Place Farm buildings. The site was built as part of an extensive network of posts designed to confirm and report hostile aircraft and nuclear attacks on the United Kingdom. At the time of the Defence of Britain survey (1995-2002) the site was found to remain in a fair condition. The site was opened during May 1963 and closed in October 1968. (1-3)
