Princess Caroline's Battery
Built 1732, now the Military Heritage Centre.
An artillery battery built in 1732 and named for Princess Caroline, daughter of George II. It now houses the Military Heritage Centre, which traces the garrison's history from the Moorish period to the modern regiment.
It sits at the northern end of the reserve, close to the tunnel entrances, so it fits naturally into a route that takes in both tunnel systems.
Where this rating comes from
This is the rating for the ticket, not for this site on its own.
Princess Caroline's Battery is not sold or reviewed separately anywhere we can licence, so it carries no score of its own — and we would rather show you nothing than invent one. What we can tell you is how people rate the ticket that admits you to it, which is the thing you actually buy.
