Santa Isabel battery - Gran Canaria 2024

[Newage]

Hi All
Last but one post so you don`t have too put up with my holiday ramblings much longer.
This is the Santa Isabel coastal battery and that`s about all I could find out about this place, I think it might be split in
too two different parts, the surface fort and its magazines and the later Battery range finding bunker (More of the next)

Again visited with the help and guidance of Marc B (Mate if you read this there is a second range finding bunker further
along the ridge line)

Pictures..........

I`m guessing these are the magazines for the above gun pits.

The above ground surface gun pits

Right that`s you lot, there`s not a lot too see here so thanks for looking and as usual all and any comments is most welcome.
There are a few more pictures on my FlickR site so head on over too-

Nice set of photos but one wonders why they wanted a battery like that on an Island`

I`m interested in the date the place was built, it looks like some of our 1800`s forts but the gun pits further along the ridge line look WW2-ish.
