Red Sands Fort, summer 2003
Red Sands Fort, an anti-aircraft installation off the coast of Kent, was
home to three offshore radio stations during the sixties: Radio Invicta, King Radio and
Radio 390. The buildings are still there although they are in bad condition and the connecting
walkways have been torn down. During the beautiful summer of 2003 correspondent Derek Smith
and his wife went out on a cruise aboard the sailing barge Greta from Whitstable. The
trip took them round Red Sands. These are Derek's photographs.
