Summary

The northernmost of two forts built on Berry Head in 1795-1807. Three were originally planned but only two were built, the other being No. 1. Fort No. 3 was the main fortification, its redoubt and perimeter walls enclosing some 16 acres. It is said to have been built on the site of prehistoric or Roman fortifications, a rampart across the neck of the headland being demolished when it was built. The batteries and barracks were dismantled in 1817 but structural and earthwork remains are visible on aerial photographs from the 1940s to 2012 and on the ground. The redoubt still stands to its full height, the powder magazine became a coastguard station in 1906 and the former guardhouse is now a café. The aerial photographs also provide a good resource to track the incremental encroachment of Berry Head Quarry into the north of the fort between 1946 and 1969. The site is now part of the Berry Head Country Park.

Site visit 24th August 1840. There was originally a rampart across the neck of land, now obliterated by the 'modern' construction of fortifications partly on the same line. Thought to be British in origin, but Roman coins have also been found (c1730). Linked in tradition with Vespasian and the defeat of the Gaulish/British fleet in Torbay. On the north side is a zig-zag path to the sea.

No. 3 fort, Berry Head (in Torbay Borough County Country Park). One of two forts built on Berry Head in 1803-1805. Three forts were planned originally but in the event only two were built.
The government purchased 27 acres of land on Berry Head in 1794 and a number of wooden huts and probably Half Moon Battery were erected soon after. An admiralty signal station was set up in 1795, but work on No. 3 fort did not start until 1803.
No. 3 fort was the main fortification on Berry Head with its redoubt and perimeter walls enclosing some 16 acres. The fort had eight barrack blocks, each with its own kitchen, latrine, well and coal store. Other buildings included regimental store, officers mess, guard room and the hospital, which was replaced by a new hospital in 1809. The buildings were built in stone or in timber with slate-hanging. They were dismantled in about 1820 and the site was then returned to civilian use.
A plan of Berry Head in 1967 shows features of No. 3 fort which can still be traced and this can be compared with the plan of the original layout of the fort.

No. 3 fort defended the main sea-facing batteries and housed the bulk of the garrison. A massive redoubt of stone walls and ditch divided the neck of the headland from the common to the west and was flanked north and south by musketry walls. The enclosure of 16 acres so formed housed numerous buildings including a guardhouse, field train shed, artillery store, stable block, magazine and eight prefabricated barracks with their own kitchens, latrines, wells and coal stores. The barracks are early example of the use of partially prefabricated buildings,

A survey of the forts on Berry Head, including a history of the fortifications, identification of the surviving buildings and fortifications together with an assessment of future fieldwork and recording and suggestions for the future management and conservation of the historical features within the Country Park. The report lists cartographic sources, documentary sources and plans.
Fort No. 3 is one of two garrisoned redoubts built to protect Berry Head against land attack. Three forts were originally proposed but in the event only 2, forts 1 and 3 were built. Construction of the forts began in 1794 and was largely complete by 1804, a renewal of the threat of invasion by the French in 1801 giving a fresh impetus to their completion.
Fort No. 3 occupies the main headland and housed most of the garrison during the Napoleonic Wars. It was entered from the west via a drawbridge across a dry moat for which settings are still visible. The northern part of the fort has been quarried away but part of the southern musketry wall survives.
A number of building survive within the fort, including the guardhouse which is now a café, the powder magazine which became a coastguard station in 1906, the artillery store and a sentry box. The foundations of the field train shed also survive and also those of the four southern barrack blocks with the cisterns between them. See report for further details.

Between 1792 and 1815 more than 200 army barracks were built across Great Britain, 20 of which were in Devon. At Berry Head, single storey timber barracks on brick foundations were built in 1803.

Pye, A.R. & Slater, W.D., 1990, Berry Head Fort, Brixham, An Archaeological Survey (Report - Survey). SDV362493.

An archaeological survey of the remains of features and buildings within the Napoleonic fortifications at Berry Head. Berry Head is one of the most complete surviving examples of purpose-built Napoleonic fortifications in South-West England. As well as the well-preserved redoubts, it encompasses a system of sea-facing batteries along the southern coast of Torbay, and a hospital.
There were also been earlier phases of activity on Berry Head, most notably during the Iron Age and during the American War of Independence in the 1780s.
See associated monuments for further details of individual buildings and features, and report for full details of the survey.

Article with an early photo of Berry Head which shows many of the Napoleonic fortifications still intact. Twenty 24 pounder guns were installed here in 1779-80 (ten at the end of Berry Head, three each at Hardy's Head and 'Danish Castle' and five at Fishcombe) and by 1780 there were 800-900 encamped here.
Permission was granted for new fortifications and buildings in 1803. The builder, John Scoble, was paid £3150. A small hospital was built as part of the main works which was replaced by a larger military hospital nearby in 1809.
An Admiralty signal station was set up in 1795 which appears to have closed down in about 1814. The Coastguard later had a semaphore station here.

Armitage, P. L., 2004, Five small-scale archaeological watching briefs at the Berry Head Forts, Brixham (Report - Watching Brief). SDV365920.

A series of archaeological watching briefs was carried out in the Berry Head forts by members of Brixham Heritage Museum’s Field Research Team in March and April 2004 in order to monitor any artefacts uncovered during works by the Torbay Coast and Countryside Trust.
In Fort No. 3, the northern fort, works comprised digging postholes for an erosion control barrier, construction of steps, removal of tipped deposits in the moat and the replacement of three old benches. The ground disturbance was only small scale and the spoil was hand-sorted for artefacts including animal bones and also scanned with a metal detector to retrieve any metal objects.
Finds from the postholes comprised ceramics including creamware, blue and white pearlware and north Devon earthenware. Most of the sherds were small and abraded. All are dated to the time of the military occupancy, c.1795-c.1815. Also found were pieces of slate, a tobacco pipe stem, a piece of folded copper alloy sheet, 17 metal buttons and four sheep and cattle bones.
From the redeposited soil tipped into the moat finds included three sherds from the lid of a bone china toilet box and a sherd from a marmalade jar, both Victorian in date and sherds of Georgian pearlware, creamware and stoneware. Also found were sherds of glass, 2 marbles (one glass and one clay), pieces of clay pipe stems and a piece from a fluted bowl decorated with oak leaves, seven sheep and cattle bones, 3 bones from domestic fowl and an oyster shell.
Waste from prehistoric tool manufacture, possibly Mesolithic was found in soil disturbed by rabbit burrowing in the earthen rampart adjacent to the steps. No finds, apart from a very worn fragment of animal bone, were recovered from the area of the benches.

Passmore, A. J., 2010, Archaeological Recording at Berry Head, Brixham, Devon, May to October 2009 (Report - Assessment). SDV364281.

Archaeological recording was undertaken by Exeter Archaeology in 2009 within the two Napoleonic forts during construction and conservation works as part of the Torbay Coast and Countryside Trust’s ‘On The Edge’ project. It followed on from an assessment and survey carried out in 1989 and 1990.
Within Fort No. 3, building recording and excavation were carried out on the guardhouse and the ROC building. Mid 19th century rubbish pits were uncovered and also a short length of tunnel.
Finds from both forts included early 19th century pottery, clay tobacco pipes and glass.

One of two garrisoned redoubts built on Berry Head between 1795 and 1807. Fort No. 3 occupied the main headland and housed most of the garrison during the Napoleonic wars.
Most of the Ordnance land was let for pasture from 1823 and in 1886 was sold to A. A. M. Hogg. The common and the forts were bought by Torbay Council in 1969.

Gaimster, M., 2011, Post-Medieval Fieldwork in Britain and Northern Ireland in 2010: Devon, 10 (Article in Serial). SDV361542.

A.J. Passmore and M. Leverett (Exeter Archaeology) recorded structures within two Napoleonic-era forts. Work in Fort 3 explored the development of the guardhouse and the WW2/Cold War Royal Observer Corp building. Excavations behind the guardhouse uncovered parts of two further structures (one timber-framed), and mid-19th century rubbish pits. A short length of tunnel forming part of a drainage system was also uncovered (citing Exeter Archaeology Report 10.73).

Post-excavation analysis of animal bones from late 18th-19th century military refuse deposits provides evidence of fish in the garrison diet and also evidence of change of age and size of hake stocks following post-industrial commercial fishing.

Passmore, A., 2013, BT Cable, Berry Head, Torbay: Results of a Watching Brief (Report - Watching Brief). SDV362961.

A watching brief was carried out by AC archaeology during emergency repairs to the BT cable supplying buildings within Fort 3 at Berry Head, Brixham. The repairs were required following a lightning strike that had affected both telephone and electricity supplies to the lighthouse, coastguard station and café. Fort 3, a Scheduled Monument, is one of two Napoleonic-era fortifications constructed at Berry Head to strengthen the defences of the south coast in anticipation of a French attack. No finds or features were exposed.

The late eighteenth to early twentieth century fort number 3 at Berry Head is clearly visible on aerial photographs from 1946 to 2012, as earthwork banks and cut terraces and numerous structures. Many of those on the sunken terrace on the northern side have since been quarried away, and others have become less visible due to vegetation cover. Although much of the fort is depicted on the base mapping, other parts are visible in greater detail on the aerial photographs and some additional features are visible, so these have been transcribed. Some surrounding features have also been mapped to provide context but most extant buildings and roofless structures on the base map have not been transcribed. Most of the transcriptions are based on the 1946 aerial photographs. In addition to the massive defensive walls and bank, with gun platforms and openings, many of the internal structures depicted on historic plans (see Pye & Slater 1990) are visible as low ruins or earthwork mounds. The internal plans of some of the barracks and the structure south-west of the guardhouse are clearly visible on aerial photographs taken in the hot summer of 1976, but also on non-drought years. A pit at circa SS9434156462 is also visible on this run of photographs, with a mound of what appears to be spoil on the south-east side against the outer edge of the southern wall. This is likely to be from excavations of the tunnels south of the guardhouse. Additional features to those already on the Torbay HER include probable Second World War structures such as two small roughly square buildings, possibly lookouts, on the southern part of the rampart, an adjacent gun platform, and two rectangular platforms at circa SX9434555576 and SX9432656555, perhaps the bases for temporary military structures, and recorded separately. A rectangular pit in the centre of the fort at circa SX9446056529 is likely to be a cistern and this pit appears to have been deliberately reused for the underground monitoring post established in 1960.

Berry Head Fort and battery and Hardy's Head Battery.
The monument, which falls into two separate areas of protection, includes Berry Head Fort and battery and Hardy's Head Battery. Berry Head Fort was a heavily defended garrisoned fort built around a half moon coastal battery constructed on the main promontory of Berry Head at the turn of the 19th century. This was in response to the repeated threats of an invasion by the French under Napoleon Bonaparte. Much of the defences of Berry Head Fort, its half moon coastal battery site, and some of its interior buildings have survived later quarrying of the headland for limestone. The ramparts, revetments, and walls of Berry Head Fort are Listed Grade II* whilst some of the other fort buildings in the interior are Listed Grade II. See scheduling description for full details.
Date first scheduled: 9th November 1950. Date of most recent amendment: 14th March 2000
