File talk:Submarine Telephone Cables PICT8182 1.JPG
Like giant metal snakes crossing the Atlantic.
- Looks like you can sabotage them pretty easily with a good chainsaw. --Arm (talk) 12:51, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
- The cables are enclosed in quite solid cast iron(?) protective covers. The cable is exposed as it goes up to the building but I suspect that is because of erosion. You can sabotage a lot of things with a chainsaw or even simple spanner but not sure what that proves. I suspect would only have carried local telephone traffic in recent years, if they were part of the Admiralty communications between gun batteries (as I suspect) then the whole area would be guarded. --jmb (talk) 16:25, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
Are you sure they're not submarine indicator loops? --83.145.47.129 (talk) 03:12, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
How many?[edit]
I'm struggling to see five cables. I only see three. SpinningSpark 20:31, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
