PEMBROKE FORT (1879)
Fort Pembroke was built after a defence committee recommendation in 1873. Work began on the 24th January 1875 and was completed in December 1879. The fort was to serve two defence purposes namely to safeguard the seaward approach to the Grand Harbour and to defend the right flank of the Victoria Lines as well as preventing any over flanking movement around the fortified Great Fault. Today, it is being used for educational purposes and houses the Verdala International School.
PEMBROKE BATTERY (1899)
Pembroke Battery was built between 1909 and 1912, a short distance away from Fort Pembroke. Oval in shape, the battery was armed with two 9.2 inch BL MK X guns abreast of each other, each having a 180-degree arc of fire. In the mid-1980s part of this battery was destroyed to make way for housing development. The Pembroke Local Council is currently involved together with the Ministry for Environment in restoration works on this Battery which it aims to transform into a Museum.
