The Battery sits on the entrance to the harbour, on the slopes of Signal Hill. It is sometimes described as an outport within the city of St. John's and is noted for its steep slopes, and colourful houses. The Battery has been the site, over the centuries, for gun emplacements (batteries), such as Fort Waldegrave, for the defence of St. John's Harbour, including during both World Wars. It is home to Chain Rock, a land outcropping to which a large chain was attached connecting to Fort Amherst, since as early as 1770, to prevent the entry of enemy ships into St John's harbour. Chain Rock is one of two rocks located on opposite sides of the Narrows, the aptly named entrance to the harbour; Pancake Rock is on the opposite shore. The space between the two rocks is 174 metres. A defensive chain was stretched between the rocks by means of a capstan at nightfall. During World War I and II the chain was replaced with anti-submarine nets.

We stayed at this property as our daughter was getting married. Clean, nicely appointed, bright and airy, perfect for a bride to get ready. Beautiful view over St John's Harbour.

I was there to visit my daughter so she stayed in the house with me. The house was well appointed leaving us wanting for nothing. The roomy bedrooms had plenty of natural light and full views of the harbour. The beds were so comfortable that we wished we could sleep late every day. We also loved the living room with its awesome decor!
