Summary edit

Description

Al estallar la Guerra Civil Española, el bando nacional instaló una base de artillería de costa en Cabo Silleiro, en Bayona (Galicia, España). Denominada oficialmente "Batería J-4 Cabo Silleiro", dejó de usarse a finales de la década de 1980 y los cañones fueron sellados e inutilizados.

En el exterior del recinto de la batería hay un búnker cubierto por la vegetación. En el interior ese búnker hay dos depósitos -hoy vacíos- que suministraban agua a la batería. Los aljibes están en muy mal estado. En los últimos meses han sido desvalijados, desapareciendo las conducciones de agua que había en su interior y la escalera que subía hasta el borde de los depósitos.

Water tanks of the Battery J-4 Cabo Silleiro. When the Spanish Civil war exploded, the national decree installed a base of coastal artillery in Cape Silleiro, in Bayona (Galicia, Spain). Named officially "Battery J-4 Cabo Silleiro", it stopped being used at the end of the decade of 1980 and the cannons were sealed and rendered useless.

Outside the enclosure of the battery is a bunker covered by vegetation. Inside the bunker there are two tanks -now empties- which supplied water to the battery. The tanks are in very bad condition. In recent months they have been robbed, disappearing water pipes that was inside and the stairway leading up to the edge of the deposits.
