After a little research id managed to locate a largely intact coastal battery/ barracks in SE cornwall,
The land is private so access is personal choice, the magazines are now used as fishermans stores, and littered with nets and lobster pots etc,
Imposing 12.5" Gun emplacement still guards the channel
arty shot in underground magazine...
type "c" gun mount for 12.5"RML gun
the cookhouse
shell hoist from underground..
HUGE apron - approx 10' high concrete reinforcement
MOD boundry stone below battery
repo poster from the late 30's in maker barracks
One the the huge empacements on the barracks
A padlocked ROC post on the edge of camp
So all in all a good couple hours of roaming with intent....
