Mulberry Harbours


There were supposed to be 2 Mulberry Harbours for the D-Day landings, but one was wrecked by a storm, which caused enormous problems for the Americans. I had wanted to see these for some time because some of the caissons were fabricated near here at Lepe. The caissons were 37 x23x12 metres in size and made of concrete.
