Zf042

Zf042. One of the two 155mm Gun Shelters near Battery James. The Battery James Road had a fallen tree just before this shelter on the way to Battery James from Middleside. But I only cleared new plants/trees that have grown at the entrance of this shelter.

Zf051

Zf051. This is the top of Morrison Hill and I promptly found the No.4 Gun Block, the northern one. This was for an anti aircraft battery, established in 1917 as a result of WW One (The Great War to end all Wars). There were 5 anti aircraft batteries/sites established in Fort Mills, on Corregidor Island at that time.

Zf050

Zf050. This underground passage leads to the Battery Morrison Plotting Room; it is located very near to Battery Morrison and is under the destroyed Gun Control Station above. The battery spare gun rifle/barrel is lying between this entrance and the battery.

Zf049

Zf049. Battery Morrison is slowly disappearing under the vegetation growth; this is the bridge to gun control which is severely destroyed from the shelling during the Siege. But there are steps also to get there onto the bridge and the gun control station.

Zf048

Zf048. Battery Morrison is slowly disappearing under the vegetation growth; this is No. 1 Gun.

Zf047

Zf047. Battery Morrison is slowly disappearing under the vegetation growth; this is No. 2 Gun.

Zf046

Zf046. This is one of 2 pictures of the Telephone/Communication Hub #11 on my long way to Battery Morrison from Battery James. All the Telephone/Communication Hubs in Fort Mills are constructed in different ways, not by a common blueprint. This one is elaborate and has steps going down to it.

Zf045

Zf045. This is one of 2 pictures of the Telephone/Communication Hub #11 on my long way to Battery Morrison from Battery James. All the Telephone/Communication Hubs in Fort Mills are constructed in different ways, not by a common blueprint. This one is elaborate and has steps going down to it.

Zf031

Zf031. This is vegetation at the mouth of James Ravine on Corregidor Island. I tried to find the trail to the beach but it appears it has disappeared, better, gown over; so I dropped the idea going to the beach.

Zf041

Zf041. I just added this picture because it is a nice shot of Rock Point on Corregidor Island and the Monja Island of Mariveles Bay. That was one reason I wanted to go the beach earlier but changed my mind because the trail is gone.
