Not a medical centre but serves a community.

I've just had a look at the chart for the area.  There are three cables marked as running out from Dumpton Gap.  One seems to just peter out, but the other two run right across the chart in the general direction of Belgium.  There is, however, an annotation next to them: "Area of disused cables".  Well below my maximum anchoring depth though!

Sorry, have been away from the PC for a couple of days. I'll always join in when I can if only to help others locate the general area of the GTP.

Strange.  Signs like that are usually placed to warn shipping about the cables, specifically so that they don't anchor in the vicinity.  Anyhow, the location of the hut behind the sign is:
  • Nat'l Grid:                 TR 39528 66680
  • Nearest Post Code: CT10 1TJ
  • Lat,Long (WGS84):  51°20'55"N, 001°26'18"E or 51.348686,1.438354
