On the hills overlooking the Hayle estuary in Cornwall were 3 Heavy Anti Aircraft Batteries designed to protect the beaches, the port, the factories and the power station from airborne attack. This video looks at what's left of two of them (and as you've guessed by the title that's nothing at one of them!).

If you can add any detail to the interpretation of the site, or its history please leave a comment. If you have any wartime photos taken at the site or its ATS Camp and Male Gunner's camp, or had relatives who served there, please leave a comment.

Music is Beer Barrell Polka by a 1939 Army Choir, an unknown wartime recording of Roll Me Over and Bless Em All recorded in 1940 by Bertha Willmott. Please also check out my other videos of World War Two sites in Cornwall.
