"One Point Perspective" Smile on Saturday.
The Shoeburyness Boom (also known as the Sheerness Boom, Thames Boom or Thames Estuary Boom) refers to two defensive barriers erected across the Thames Estuary in the mid-20th century. The first example was built in 1939 during the Second World War to protect shipping from attack by submarines, mines and surface vessels, with the second being built between 1950 and 1953 to prevent access to the estuary by Soviet submarines during the Cold War.
