TOAD'S HOLE VALLEY

The two small photographs date from after the war and are of the falling slopes of the distant high ground. An Anti Aircraft battery was positioned at the vantage point. By the time of these views, 10 April 1947, guns, searchlights and other equipment had long gone but the Nissan hut, in which the troops lived was still there. This view looks south to the sea and shows houses in Sunninghill Avenue and West Blatchington Windmill. Almost all the land seen in these four photographs is now covered with houses.
