Captain Cook’s Journal During the First Voyage Round the World

CHAPTER 1
105/112

Opposite to this Island, on the low point on the east side of the Bay, is the Battry of St.Dominica of 7 Guns.

A little without this Battry, on the East side of the Bay, is a small but high Island, close to the Shore, on the Top of which is the Church of Bonn Voyage, about half-way down the Cliff.

Below the Church is a Battry of 3 Guns.

Neither the one nor the other of these battry's are of much Consequence.

They serve, indeed, to force Shipping coming into the Bay between 2 Fires, and hinder them from Anchoring on that side until they are silenced.
