Great video and really informative especially the starfish sites

Very interesting Rob and Nick. Especially about the Starfish site.
I remember going on a walk to the Pepperpot, Brown's Folly in Bathford during my time in the UK. Would love if you can do a walk there some time.

I never knew about the POW camp in Brockley, very interesting. Do you know where this would have been?

@@Luke-mq1gj Hi Luke, yes it was on the A370. Later in the war it also had German soldiers a few also remaining in the area. It’s here on Google Maps maps.app.goo.gl/RSScuJddRFsSpDKQ9?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy. Nick

The concrete block structures at the Kenn Moor Starfish are most likely Z rocket ready use ammunution holders.

I was not able to find much about them, as a kid I used to play in the bunkers. My dad can remember when they were in use during the war.

@@WhereItTakesUs I've done a fair bit of research on the local sites . I always thought Kenn Moor was a lighting site rather than a SF but not looked into this one very much so can't be sure. Fields of Deception by Dobson is the major reference book on Starfish. Nice little video . 👍

Do you have a link to this would love to find out more
