Any info about the guns?

edit

Very interesting! I was unaware of them, can they be seen from the Mosman Ferry? And is there any info about the guns that were lodged within the casemates? Cheers, DPdH (talk) 10:29, 20 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

I would have to do a bit of searching to find out what kind of guns were used. As for seeing this from the ferry, well that might be a bit difficult. I took the pictures in the article and to find this one I had to do a bit of searching. It was a nice find but I could not get inside to take pictures. The interior pic of the casemate was taken from the window carved in the cliff face. If you look closely at the bottom left hand corner you will see an old gun stand rotting away. You could probably google search the beehive casemate to find out more about the guns. Adam (talk) 10:49, 20 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Also check out some of the other fortification articles in the template at the bottome of the page. You will find out more info on what guns were used at sites such as Middle Head Fortifications, Signal Hill Battery and Illowra Battery, also known as hill 60.. Adam (talk)
