Fort Clarence, Rochester
Fort Clarence was built in 1812 as a defence against a possible Napoleonic attack from the nearby River Medway below. 'The Buildings of England - West Kent & The Weald' describes it as a "massive stock-brick tower with round angle turrets, and immense, stylised machicoulis [= an opening between the corbels of a projecting parapet or in the floor of a gallery or roof of a portal for discharging missiles upon assailants below of stone over the gateway] to the N". The latter can be seen in this view of the north elevation of the building, now apparently converted into flats.

Fort Clarence gun tower
On St Margaret's Street. On the other side of the street exactly opposite the tower is a deep man-made defile. This seems to have been dug so guns could be trained down to the near Medway bank without the brow of the hill getting in the way.
