Remains of grain fort

Grain Wing Battery is a former gun battery located just east of the village of Grain, Kent at the confluence of the Rivers Thames and Medway. It supported two existing and adjacent artillery batteries at Grain Fort and Dummy Battery, overlapping its arc of fire with Grain Tower just offshore and with Garrison Point Fort on the Isle of Sheppey across the other side of the Medway. The battery consisted of an earthwork with several gun emplacements. It was only in use as a battery for a few years after its completion in 1895, though its interior continued to be occupied by Army buildings. It was abandoned in 1956 and its remains were demolished and infilled a few years later. The site is now part of a coastal park owned by the local council.

Access can be gained across a rutted and broken muddy causeway on foot at low tide, with a climb up a ladder. Low tide the Grain Tower Battery sits on a shingle bank about 1km offshore Note chains again used to secure the western end of the boom which ran across the Medway to Sheerness
