Our final guest speaker for our 2026 'Tin Hut Talks' series, in the last useable WWI Nissen Hut in the country. We're back 18th March 2027.
This month's Tin Hut Talk guest speaker is Stewart Angell, who has been a part of Shoreham Fort's history for many years but this is the first time he has joined us for a Tin Hut Talk.
Discover the classified operations of Sussex's secret Second World War resistance force. When invasion threatened, specially trained Home Guard 'Auxiliary Units' prepared for
guerrilla warfare against German forces, ready to sabotage communications and supply lines to prevent their march on London.
Stewart is an achaeologist and spent four years uncovering their hidden hideouts and
interviewing surviving members, reveals this extraordinary story. As co-founder of Sussex Military Research and chairman of Sussex Military History Society, Stewart brings decades of research to life, exposing a little-known chapter of Britain's wartime defences that could have changed history.
Do come and join us in welcoming Stewart to Shoreham Fort, where you will find a hot drink waiting for you which included in the price.
Doors will be open from 18:30 for a 19:00 start.
