 The battery is equipped with three 8-inch (203 mm) Mark VIII naval guns.The complex was built in 1941 and manned by men of 520 Coastal Regiment Royal Artillery

The construction of the A20 in the 1970s caused most of the battery to be covered with earth, so little can be seen on the surface, though access is possible to the underground battery plotting room.Some of the observation posts on the cliff edge are also visible.
