Noticed this place on the way home from istead rise one time, noticed a odd looking structure which intern i decided to investigate :D

The main part is round with several out buildings, looks like theres possible underground section but its filled in, further along the field there was some more concrete ruins with another possible underground section.

No history on this place but possibly AA gun post to defend gravesend airport

Probably a reservoir, or even a treatment bed. Where is the structure in picture 13 in relation to the circular structure?
