Monument record TR 35 NW 670 - Stonar Camp, Richborough Port

Summary

A military camp originally constructed in WWI as part of Richborough Port, a major WWI port serving allied troops on the Western Front. Although decommissioned following WWI, the camp buildings were still in existence by WWII when the site appears to have been reused for military purposes with the addition of extra defences to its perimeter. It is not clear whether there are any remaining elements of this facility as the site has been redeveloped on several occasions since the later 20th century.
