Had some time to kill this morning so I decided to go for a walk around the MOD training area at Reinden Woods.
Part of the East Kent Dry training area acquired by the MOD in 1938 for training leading up to WW2.
This place is littered with open brick bunker type things I found at least 10 good ones and loads that had been demolished.
I also found 4 of these brick base with concrete roof bunkers, with a door at each end.
There is also a large building with no windows apart from the two front slots, maybe it was some kind of power plant as it has two chimneys at one end. There is a steel door each end, unfortunately padlocked.
Front:
Rear / chimney:
The bogs and a funny little hut in a clearing.
I think there is a lot more to be found in there, a woman who scared the crap out of me by asking what I was taking photos of while I was engrossed, said that there was at least 1 large underground tunnel that her dog found about 10 years ago but could not remember where it was apart from it was on the north side of the woods and the entrance was 3 or 4 ft tall and on a hill side. She said she was in there 10 mins looking for her dog there was a single long tunnel with at least 8 rooms off of it
