Dartmouth Castle stands on a promontory where the River Dart meets the English Channel in south Devon. It was begun in 1388 to protect the town and harbour against French raids, and a century later was strengthened with a gun tower, the first purpose-built coastal artillery fort in Britain. Displays trace its story to the Second World War, including an audio and light show of a gun crew.
