Crafty Shirley - Denge Sound Mirrors at Lade Pits

Some of the photos taken by Shirley of the Sound Mirrors at Lade Pits

Sound Mirrors By The Kent Coast - Not Far From Dungeness

Within a short walk of Greatstone Seafront are the lakes at Lade Pit and behind these lakes are the three Listening Devices built in the 1920s and 30s as part of a national early warning system against enemy aircraft - one of only two sites in the World where you can see all three designs.

For more information and future dates for guided tours of the site (to learn the fascinating story behind them with the author of the two books and the World’s expert, Dr Scarth), visit the Romney Marsh Countryside Project website or telephone them on 01797 367934.

The photos in this collection were taken by Crafty Shirley and Keith on previous visits.
