At Georges and Middle Heads in Sydney Harbour National Park, you can see 150 years of military improvements. Back in the Napoleonic Wars (1805-15), a sandstone parapet was cut into the rock to ward off a feared French invasion. Then a series of interlinking tunnels and passageways were excavated after the withdrawal of British colonial troops garrisoned in Sydney.
From 1806 to the 1960s, Middle Head was an integral part of Sydney's defence. To find out how, why not go on a Discovery tour of the tunnels and gun emplacements which overlook the harbour?
