Description

Warden Point Gun Emplacement is a square-shaped gun emplacement built around 1890. The base is made of concrete over brick, while the first floor is also concrete. On the first floor, there is a canted opening that features two iron shutters mounted on three pintle hinges, which were released when the gun was aimed. This is the best preserved gun emplacement remaining in the area.
