Location Folkstone

Public or Abandoned: Public

Demolished:  No

The roc post back dates to 1961 but closed not long after being opened because it moved location , 

The martello tower is a small round fort that is dotted all over the UK that had two floors in it.

We then headed up to Folkstone to go see Martello tower 3, iv known about this Martello tower for a long time just didn’t know too can walk up to it.

Once we got to the carpark, we got out of the car and made our way up to the Martello tower, unfortunately, the Martello tower was locked up, when exploring around the Martello tower turns out there also a roc post next to it called “ Site 1” but again very sealed up.

The little wonder around that area was nice, I had a quick look on maps and notice there was more to the site than just a Martello tower & roc post there was also a few remains of old costal defense building, One building had been converted into a cost guard watchtower and the other two just sit a little down the pathway

We made our way down to the other two defense buildings, Once was fully sealed up with no way looking in and the second one was a bit graffitied up but open

Time was getting on a bit so we called it a night as it starting to get a bit cold and our little one was tired

Overall was a fun few hours in Folkstone looking at all the Martello tower, Roc post, and Costal defence, and are little one enjoyed it to

To start off our day off little walks around the cost we first stop off at Neptune tower ( Neptune folly) we park at the carpark got out of the car and give me along the cost front was the folly! The folly itself was very pretty, but not that big.

The inside of the folly was empty but their lots of bugs, but I guess that is what like for springtime! I Did notice that there was also a possible old fire pit that was in middle

Once we were done at the tower we headed down to the beach to have some family time why is it was still very quiet down there.

The Explore :

Being a bit bored and wanted to go for a walked we drove back up to the area, Once we arrived in the area it started to p**S down with the rain but that didn't stop us - we got out of the car put little on in the bushbaby carrier and off went into the woodlands. 

the woodland itself is a lovely little forest, 

there is not much history that can be found at this location.
