terryb Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Next to the Battle Of Britain memorial at Capel Le Fern, there is a parcel of land with what appears to be some deep shafts Any ideas what was here? Terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Johns Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 (edited) That will be Capel gun battery deep shelter, and underground hospital site. There are lots of similar WW2 deep shelters & tunnels, observation posts and gun battery sites along miles of the cliffs around Dover, the National Trust have restored Fan Bay Deep Shelter and opened it to the public Edited December 9, 2022 by Nick Johns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Johns Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 (edited) The Capel Le Ferne gun battery site next to the Battle of Britain memorial near Dover is to open once a month from April, they hope to open a museum there http://www.capelbattery.com/ Edited February 14, 2023 by Nick Johns Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
