Situated on high ground overlooking
the Grand Shaft this battery was used not only in Napoleonic
times but also in World
War One and Two.
It commands unrivalled views of the harbour and town
and was reached from the Grand
Shaft by means of steps known as St Martin's Steps.
Many of these have survived and can still be used.
(St Martin is the patron saint of Dover).
