Entrance to Drop Redoubt, Dover

The Drop Redoubt fortress was built between 1804 and 1815. It is situated in a prime location on the Western Heights hills and provided barracks for 200 men and housing for twelve 24-pounder guns. The surrounding ditches vary from 29ft to 49ft in depth, and were faced with brick.

I love old doors and associated door furniture. It would be pretty hard to get through there
