Parkgate- The Old Watch House

Parkgate- The Old Watch House
This little building overlooking the Middle Slipway dates from about 1720. It was used by the coastguard service as a Watch House until 1799, when it was taken over by the HM Customs to keep an eye on local shipping and, in particular, any smuggling. (parkgatesociety.co.uk)
