Welcome, your Dad, he wasn't a mate of George Mc Donald Frazer by any chance? He mentions a bird (apperently it is actually a lizrd) that had a very anoying call.

what are you talking about

yeah theres definitlely no doubt in this story its something thats plagued my dad for years,as he couldnt understand why they did it,i guess deep penetration ground radar would be needed to try and find the site,i dont think you would see any trace when they were shutting down the site,most of their land had already been flattened and was large areas of brownfield,even in the 80,s we were scavenging parts of the shore line for scrap shell cases that had just been chucked in the river
and the thing about the mod is it can be near impossible to get any info
your right about a lot of stuff being purposely disregarded as there have been a few childrens play areas closed down due to severely comtaminated soil,and they only came to light in the last ten years
im not sure about scrap prices in the late forties,but i know army surplus auctions were quite common then
with vast quantitys of different items
i sometimes see items on certain auction sites(not ebay) that are just out of storage ,recently it was a load of 1940s

Has anyone heard about the tanks,half tracks andlorrys that were buried in south london
down near the plumstead bus garage
at the time the land was part of the woolwich arsenal
my dad was creeping about with his mates,and as kids do,they were where they shouldnt have been
there was a pit about fifty foot deep by around a hundred foot around,maybe bomb damage i dont know
but he says the pit was filled with vehicles and then buried
he thinks the site is just north of the plumstead bus garage
