Note 161 — SIGNAL STATION: FAIRLIGHT, NEAR HASTINGS, SUSSEX
Reading edition
Gardner’s memory must here have been playing him false. The distance from Fairlight to Boulogne and the adjacent coast is fully 35 miles: the camp had been broken up in the previous September, and the soldiers that had formed it were far away, at Vienna or its neighbourhood; as Gardner, at the time, must have known.
