Full Description
A coastguard station is visible on the Epoch 1, 2 and 3 (1877, 1899 and 1908) editions of the historic 1:2500 Ordnance Survey mapping, located on the coast at Littlestone-on-Sea [1-3]. It is no longer visible on the Epoch 4 (1938) edition [4]. The Little Stone Coastguard Station appears to be associated with the adjacent Lifeboat House and slipway to the south (MWX44036).
The area was given a monument polygon (mapped from the Epoch 1 edition [1]) during historic mapping enhancement as part of Phase 1 of the South East Rapid Coastal Zone Assessment Survey.
