Maunsell Forts in the Thames Estuary (@ Howard Kingsnorth/Corbis)

Maunsell Forts in the Thames Estuary (@ Howard Kingsnorth/Corbis)

comments,

  • These strange looking objects aren\t mechanical overlords invading from the sea, in fact they\re quite the opposite.""So what were they used for?
  • London was once one of the world\s busiest ports but the onset of WWII meant the waters needed defending.""The only shooting around these now are the incredible photos
  • What does one do with an abandoned seafort?""Create an entirely new nation of course
  • With the cold winds, driving rain and distant neighbours, what can you do to cheer yourself up a bit?""How about a spot of extreme skateboarding?
