framing suggestion:
This broken-down fence is - I think - a small surviving part of the WW2 outer defence perimeter
around the Bawdsey radar research base, the first of its kind and the start of what became
known as the Chain Home link of radar establishments around the south and east coasts of
Britain in the 1940s - our first line of defence against enemy aircraft. In combination with Fighter
Command's Hurricanes and Spitfires, Robert Watson-Watts' radar saved our bacon. We now
get it from Denmark.
The Bawdsey radar base is still there, manned by volunteers as a sponsored tourist attraction.
It's worth visiting for its history, but it's really not very photogenic. But then nor, I suppose, is
this wreck of a fence...
