Verne High Angle Battery, Portland, Dorset, England From Wikipedia: The High Angle Battery is a derelict fort built in 1892 on the Isle of Portland in Dorset, England. It is Grade II Listed. The battery is situated in the Verne area, close to the Verne Citadel (HM Prison The Verne), Fancy's Family Farm and Nicodemus Knob. The battery was built as part of Britain's Coastal Defences in 1892 and is located in a disused Portland Stone quarry at the northern end of the island. Just to the north, at the top of high cliffs of Portland is the Verne Citadel with which it would have formed part of an impressive defence installation, protecting both merchant and naval shipping using Portland Harbour.
