Maunsell's sea forts




Built in the Second World War, these forts found off the coast of Kent in the Thames estuary, were used to provide anti aircraft fire. Abandoned in the the 1950's, some were used as a base for pirate radio in the 1060's.

Reminiscent of a Science Fiction film set the above photo are taken from here.
