The following one should not take too long to track down. We visited here last weekend for the first time. So where were we and for a bonus point what had we specifically came to see?

Thanks Beachbum, it was the ‘spoil’ clue that prompted me to look at Samphire Hoe, though I had guessed that its purpose was to vent an underground network. I only replied because I took a picture last weekend, but as I’m way at the moment, I shall put it up tomorrow evening.

Well done Stewie, it is indeed Samphire Hoe Ventilation System.

This new part of Kent was created from the Spoil excavated from the digging of the the Channel Tunnel.

Over to you........

What does admirer mean in English?
An admirer is a fan, supporter, or lover (one of these applies)
Ah, I was wondering how "Admirers" linked to "heat exchangers"!  Location:

With that clue, is it the extractor fans at the Samphire Hoe country park which presumably vent the Channel Tunnel?

I'm flat out of usable photos.  Odd when you know the solution but can't understand the clue!

I'm with you MartingR - I'm not sure of the clue either.  I look forward to the reveal  ;D
