Hiking
WW2 military structures located around the hilltop (just
one can be accessed by the public). These are the brickbuilt bases of (now gone) timber radio direction finder (RDF)
towers and antennae. Wartime RAF personnel within these
towers monitored and reported radio messages from aircraft
travelling inland and towards the coast. It is understood that
the antennae were on wooden platforms within the towers and
could be revolved by a pedal-powered cog wheel.
