Mosman Gunner Tunnels
The Mosman Gunner Tunnel System, situated within Middle Head Military Fortifications, was built-in 1877 and has remained one of Sydney's iconic relics from a bygone era. The limestone tunnel system overlooks Sydney Harbour, and lies beneath several large calibre guns that once stood guard to protect Sydney from any would-be attackers following the departure of the British army in the late 1800’s (Fitzsimons, 2014).
