Sleeping On The Grain Tower Battery Over Night | Part 1

We make our way out to the old battery and climb up and inside, as it was night time we set up camp, made some food and did a basic look around, in this first part we don't touch on the history we are just showing you us settling in and having a nose about.

In Part 2 we add more historic information and because of the light from the sun, the structure looked different and a lot bigger...

HISTORY
The Grain Tower Fort
Grain Tower Battery was constructed between cc1879 and cc1855 of granite in an Martello tower style design, Unique by virtue that it was constructed off shore on a mud-spit in the River Medway, and only accessible by foot along a (muddy) brick causeway at low tide.

The fort was initially armed with a 56lb gun and a pair of 32lb canon. Fifty five years after construction (1910 – 1912), the fort was upgraded prior to the outbreak of WW1 to accommodate two 4.7″ QF guns.

The next upgrade came in cc1940 when the two storey barrack block was constructed along with the Battery Observation Post and a twin 6lb Quick Firing (QF) gun. The Battery has been listed since cc1986 under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 for its special architectural and historic interest.
