Product Description

The East Sussex coastline has always been Britain's frontline defence against invasion. From the forts of Henry VIII and the Napoleonic Martello towers and forts to the pillboxes and gun emplacements of two world wars and the secret structures of the cold war, the evidence of the defences can still be seen. Local author and archaeologist Chris Butler takes us to each of these sites (over 100 in all), describing what is to be seen today as well as its history. As well as a full range of illustrations there are full directions to the sites and details of access.
