From a position close to the cache site, you can see over the River Medway to Darnet Fort and Hoo Fort, both built between about 1861 and 1872 to defend Chatham Dockyard from attack. Further along the river towards Chatham, can be seen Upnor Castle, built between 1559 and 1567.

Also in the area, are many pillboxes and other defences from the 2nd World War to prevent invasions over the large expanse of flat land.
