EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph showcases the majestic Fort Gilkicker, a remarkable semi-circular coastal battery nestled in Gosport, Hampshire. Built during the Victorian era in the 1860s under Palmerston's watchful eye, this formidable fortress stands as a testament to Britain's commitment to safeguarding its shores. The intricate casemented design of Fort Gilkicker is beautifully captured in this print, revealing its strategic layout and architectural grandeur. Its purpose was clear - to protect the vital anchorage at Spithead from potential threats. The fortification served as an artillery battery, housing powerful cannons ready to defend against any hostile incursions. With an elevated perspective offered by Damian Grady's lens, viewers can appreciate both the historical significance and sheer scale of this coastal defense structure. The image allows us to marvel at how such engineering feats were accomplished over a century ago. Fort Gilkicker remains an enduring symbol of British military prowess and innovation. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time when these forts played a crucial role in protecting our nation's interests. Through Historic England's preservation efforts and Damian Grady's artistry behind the camera lens, we are granted access to relish in the beauty and history encapsulated within this extraordinary piece of architecture. Let us cherish these visual reminders that honor our past while inspiring future generations with their awe-inspiring presence.
