Exploring out to sea, sort of, a first for myself and with only a weeks planning the best tide times to head out to Grain Tower Battery myself and CapturePhotography  found ourselfs at the battery.


Despite the excitement, my hatred for ladders still appears to be a thing, quoting Jeremy Clarkson’s “many poos have come out” while climbing the sketchy ladder.


The explore itself was great, and in some cases quite unusual with the mount of general public also walking out to the battery and even climbing onto it themselves.


There’s not much left inside, other than litter and discarded bbqs from previous visitors but still creates an amazing and unique explore. With the Maunsell Sea Forts visible in the distance, the obvious question remains… when will they be our next target?


Brief history below, pinched from Wikipedia as always followed by the all important photos.
