I did a report on this years back and the pictures where pretty badly lit and on a 18mm kit lense so after many years of not going out anywhere i've been dragged out of retirement a few times this year by Obscurity and this was a nice little revisit to get better pics and have a laugh!
History..
Hudson's Bastion is the most complex of the 19th Century defences in Dover Castle's East Ditch. It comprises the fortified bastion earthwork itself, with an underground guardroom, a large caponnier flanking the ditch and a long, two-level loopholed musketry gallery. The entrance to these outworks from within the castle is through a long tunnel, known as Hudson's Passage. The underground sections of Hudson's Bastion remain in good condition and are an excellent example of 19th Century fortification.
Explore wise.
got a last minute call form Obs so jumped in and off we went,no dramas in and out no fuss or bother..
Pictures. Only so many to get from here and as a lot of passages look the same have a small selection of fisheye shots.
Short and sweet but i thought it was about time i put up some pics form at least one of the locations this year
