I think I've worked this one out and am fairly sure I know where the door led to. I'll hold back as I think others might have fun solving this one.

Thanks John Walker, and MartinR for not giving up the search.
So your next one: What were these Buildings for? and where does the secret door go to?

It's just shown on Google as Pablo Bronstein - Beach Hut
One of many art projects dotted around Folkestone. Some are very strange.
There's another one a bit further along the beach walk. The Ledge by Bill Woodrow
I think it's over to you Beachbum.

I spent ages cruising along the road above, convinced that it was a cctv mast or such…
As ever, easy when you know the answer

I've got to give to you MartinR. You don't give in easily
Move to the coastal path from the Grand and you will be very close.
