The building and small network of banked-up trackways are located on the bare coastal shingle to the east of Denge Marsh, within the Lydd Ranges, which are still in use for military training today. They are centred at TR 0321 1742, and fall either side of a substantial linear structure which runs parallel to the shore, and is likely to have been constructed as a sea defence. The banked-up trackways or roads branch-off from this possible sea defence structure at three points. A further length of track to the north does not join them, but appears to lead to a building located on the northern side of the possible sea defence. The trackways do not seem to lead anywhere, and have the appearance of being out of use by the time of the vertical aerial photograph of 1940. By the time of the aerial photograph of 1946; the building had been removed. A large probable Second World War bomb crater lies just to the west, at TR 0306 1750. It measures approximately 12m across. The appearance of these features on aerial photographs is not immediately diagnostic of any specific function or period, so the possible military interpretation is based purely on the surrounding context. The area to the north-east is dominated by an extensive Second World War armoured fighting vehicle (AFV) range, which overlies a possibly even earlier rifle range (Monument Number 1539764). To the north lies a banked partial enclosure which has an intensely pock-marked appearance thought to be caused by the repeated impact of shelling or gunfire (Monument Number 1539767). This is thought to have been used as a firing range or bombing range of some sort. The fields of Denge Marsh to the west are the site of multiple gun targets and splinter-proof shelters, as recorded on Ordnance Survey maps of 1907 and 1909. The former Lydd Battery of 1798 (Monument Number 462692) is recorded as being sited approximately 120m to the west of the western extent of the raised trackways. However, alternative interpretations should also be considered. The latest available vertical aerial photographs of 2007 show that the banked trackways or roads are still faintly visible as extant earthworks. A new building occupies the site of the original one (1-5).
