Owned by English Heritage and open to the public, it also has two holiday cottages within the walls. Choose to stay during the winter months when they are only open to the public at weekends and you have the place to yourself during the week apart from a few members of staff who work in the barrack block. I even have the keys to the main gate to let myself in and out! Weapons include 25pdr, several Bofors, 3.7”, 12pdr, 155mm Long Tom, 3 x 6” coastal defence guns - IMG_6751.jpegIMG_6761.jpegIMG_6762.jpegIMG_6756.jpegIMG_6753.jpegIMG_6755.jpegIMG_6765.jpegone on a high angle mounting. Well worth a visit or even a staycation.
