Leighton Battery

It is nice to get out an about on the weekend, m'friend Rita and I have just returned from Leighton Battery coastal defence tunnels at Buckland Hill, near to Freemantle, and together with the rest of Perth defences they covered a 30km range of the area.

I do like going down tunnels, which is the main reason I wanted to go, but the history of the installation was interesting too, follow the above link for more information and photos than I can provide.

I did not take many photos, as it was all pretty cramped and underground, however there are some photos here : http://home.st.net.au/~dunn/ozatwar/bucklandhill.htm
