Full description
A structure to the west of the chemise is first shown on the 1910 Ordnance Survey plan. The path network leading from the store implies that it was built to serve the practice battery which is thought to date to 1895. Its design is identical to the Royal Artllery store of 1897 at St Anthony Battery. The building was incorporated into the Pendennis Radar Station towards the end of World War Two, and was demolished by the Ministry of Works in 1958 (1).
