A monster off the British coast: Rusting hulk of World War One German U-boat that has been marooned by Kent island for almost a century | Mail Online
Its hull astonishingly intact, a First World War German U-boat lies embedded in remote mudflats up an English creek.While more than 40 of the deadly submarines met their fate in our waters during the conflict, this is the only one that can be seen.
The wreckage of the others lies hidden deep beneath the sea.
The existence of this one has long been known, but its eerie presence has gained fresh interest after tidal changes and the recent storms made it more visible.
