Another shot from  Fort Griswold, this time from a much later period.  
The lower battery  was added in the 1840's the guns were probably 
originally smooth bore  napoleons.  The pictured  emplacements probably 
date from the  1870's, probably designed for three or five inch rifled 
guns and were  probably in general use until sometime in the 1920's or 
'30's by which time  they were tactically completely obsolete.

That's  nice, Peter. I like that much better than Bolt Hole. Although I wish 
there was  some slight variation in the sky. Like the lines, though.
