The second explore of the day was the Newhaven emergency battery (:

We park in the carpark for Newhaven fort & then walk up the hill to the coastal watchtower,

The watchtower is made up of 3 massive gun holder & then a cost guard lookout

Sadly all the building including the plotting room was sealed up but was nice to just walk around the battery, we even saw someone BASE jump off the Cliffe too

The view from the battery over the beach was lovely as it was also a clear day

its said that the battery was constructed in ww2, the emergency battery is located at the top of the Cliffe and would have housed three guns  .

Tbh -  we were a little bit disappointed in this location, The ground is very lovey but the castle is three rooms down stairs and a few up stiars,  but due to the current covid reactions, you have rushed along so it makes visiting the castle a bit unpleasant ( unformal i don't have any photos of the inside castle as your not allowed taking the photo)  we spent a good 2/3 hours on the castle/fort grounds at the big pond.

it said that the castle/fort that built-in 1539 / 1540 to help protect against the invasion from France . the fort was built by Henry VIII
