Living very local to Cliffe and less than 10 mins away I thought I’ll meet up with a good explore friend off mine and have another little nose around the marsh to see what has changed.

The day starts off pretty wired! First, it snowed and then I was sunny but heyho that British weather for you 😅

I know cliffe marsh very well as used to go down there a lot , only thing that has changed is the fact you can no longer get into cliffe fort anymore - ( cliffe fort 2014 & Cliffe fort 2015)
Other that and my feet hurting a bit was an overall good day out mooching around the marsh again

It is said that the ROC post opened in 1961 but closed down 7 years later in 1968,

it also said that the old kilns backdate to around 1866-6

pe for the Johnson chamber kiln.

sadly can not find any history on the air-raid shelter so possible to do with the house near by

it said that Cliffe fort was built about the 1860s to help guard the Thames against a sea-born attack - it's one of many forts around the kent shorelines.

the old decoy air-field is said to backdate to 1941-1942
