Monument record MWX51446 - Second World War tents or storehouses
Summary
A group of Second World War tents or storehouses are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs taken in 1946. The site comprises 19 rectangular and sub rectangular cropmarks. This camp is likely to have been an accommodation site for one of the nearby military sites, perhaps the series of Light Anti Aircraft Diver Batteries along the cliff edge (NMR: 1478073 and NMR: 1478142). This site has been mapped from aerial photographs as part of the South East Rapid Coastal Zone Assessment Survey NMP (Component 2).
