Rainham Marshes Nature Reserve Nearest station: Rainham.
Range Relic This is some kind of military relic from the old Purfleet Army Ranges. It does not appear to be a gun emplacement but could be an air raid shelter or maybe an ammunition store. It was impossible to get close as it was protected on two sides by drainage dikes and other access is via a private industrial site. You can see other views at 270072 and 270083.
Rainham to Purfleet Path. This is section 24 of the London Loop (London Outer Orbital Path). http://www.walklondon.org.uk/section.asp?section=24
