Monument record TQ 86 NW 48 - Tunnel or possible denehole, Rainham, Gillingham

What was intially thought to be a possible tunnel end was found during excavations for a sewer near Rainham. Further investigations found this to be a roughly semi-circular hole. Loose chalk may indicate this is a denehole or a hole created as the result of bombs known to have been dropped nearby.
