I went for a job near Dartmouth in Devon some years ago with the local Council.
They told me that the site of one of their Recreation Grounds had been used after the First World War to store a number of surrended German Submarines. These docks or what ever they were had subsequently been used has a rubbish tip and filled in to make the current recreation ground.
The story was that these Submarines had been buried during construction and in more recent years the Council had refused a request from the German Navy to carry out an exploritory dig.
Quite what the truth is in this I do not know but it was the Councils Parks Manager which told me this story.
