Western Battery

This slope leads up to western gun position

We’ve pushed through the undergrowth are heading down to the ammunition stores below.

No Nine

The nine inch gun is missing - the battery follows the same layout as seen before - steps lead down to the ammunition stores below the gun position.

LS explores down the corridors..

LS finds the nine inch shell lift - the shells were loaded in and then raised up to the gun above using the hand crank.
