A Napoleonic-era coastal fort with gun emplacements, brick ramparts, tunnels and panoramic views over the River Medway and Thames Estuary. Best at golden hour or sunset for warm light and silhouettes. Site is publicly accessible via Dock Road with nearby parking; steep paths and steps lead to viewpoints. Entry to tunnels depends on volunteer opening times and events—check the Trust website. Weekdays and early mornings avoid crowds and coastal haze.
