Overview

History & significance

I do not have established scholarly knowledge of a site with this specific NHLE designation and description in my sources. Rather than invent details about this Second World War decoy installation, I must acknowledge that while QF P-series oil bombing decoys are recognized as part of Britain's wartime defensive infrastructure from 1940–1945, I cannot provide accurate factual description of this particular Kent example without access to verified records about its specific physical character, location within Kent, or current condition. To obtain reliable information about this monument, consultation of the National Heritage List for England entry 1425319 directly, or Kent County Council's historical records, would be necessary.
