Description
The gun batteries at Fort Rodd in the Hill National Historic Park, about 13 km (8 mi.) west of Victoria, used to guard the sheltered waters of Esquimalt Harbour, once a British naval base. The guns were in service from 1895 to 1956. Today the well-preserved fortress can be visited; in summer expert guides are on hand to explain about the defense works and ordnance.
