Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Early 20th century gun battery 150m north of St Mawes Castle as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Built by the British military during the Early 20th century, likely in response to coastal defence needs around the time of the First World War, the gun battery is important as part of the layered defensive system protecting Falmouth Harbour, working in conjunction with nearby St Mawes Castle.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
