The design of the model coastal defence battery/fort I have built is imaginary, but it takes its inspiration from several similar installations I have visited or seen photographs of. These include the following:
Napier of Magdala Battery, Gibraltar
Oscarsborg Fortress, Oslofjord, Norway
New Tavern Fort, Gravesend
Great pics Bob - your model really looks the part.
ReplyDelete(Shame about the graffiti on the Gravesend gun)
Maudlin Jack Tar,
DeleteCheers! The guns in Gravesend are in a public park and are therefore a ‘target’ for those people who self-esteem depends upon ‘tagging’ thing like this.
All the best,
Bob
Ah sunny Gravesend, home of the Rejects!
ReplyDeleteRay Rousell,
DeleteGravesend was recently described as being a ‘turd town’ on the YouTube channel with that name. My impression is that there are far worse places in the county.
Long live the Rejects!
All the best,
Bob
