Scary Decent into Lydden Spout Deep Shelter
Filmed the evening before we met IKS Exploration, our adventure in to Dover’s history began with a second world war engineering marvel.
This is Lydden Spout Battery. Construction was completed in 1941 on the cliffs between Dover and Folkestone.
It is a similar design to that at Fan Bay which will be a future episode in this series so if you haven’t already, please subscribe to ALW Research Team.
Lydden Spout was originally armed with three 6-inch Mark VII naval guns on Mark V mountings, as advancements became available these were upgraded to Mark XXIV guns on the same mountings,
The Mark XXIV was a coastal defence gun with the same performance as the Mark VII* as seen in the previous episode at St Martins Battery but with a loose barrel construction. About 140 Mk XXIV guns were manufactured during World War II.
The gun positions were demolished and partially filled in as part of the 'Eyesore 'Clearance' initiative of the 1970s.
Today our objective is to access the deep shelter tunnel network that is down the cliff edge, but first let’s take a look at the remains of the Warrant Officers and Sargent’s Mess and the Cook house that remain on the surface.
