Lydden spout battery - 6/14

Visited with SlimJim and Darkhole

This has been covered recently but SlimJim however I thought I would start one of my own reports for a change!

Lydden spout was constructed in 1941, it was already in millitary use due to the firing range which is still more than visible. As far as I know (please correct me if i am wrong) the site consisted of; 3 Large naval gun emplacements which all had their own crew shelter, magazine, gun store and an officers shelter. Also had a plotting room, cook house and several accomodation blocks. Anyway on with some photos...
