Lydd Ranges, Military training ground in Kent, England
The Lydd Ranges extend along the southern coast near Romney Marsh, featuring specialized areas for artillery, anti-tank, and infantry weapons practice.
The Ministry of Defence established this training facility over 150 years ago, incorporating a narrow gauge railway system in 1936 for target movement.
The ranges incorporate sections of the Dungeness Special Area of Conservation, balancing military activities with environmental preservation requirements.
Red flags and lights signal restricted access during live firing exercises, which occur approximately 300 days throughout the year.
The facility maintains stationary armored vehicles that serve as targets for Royal Air Force aircraft, Royal Navy ships, and Army anti-tank training.
