This is the first of three gun emplacements of Battery Crenshaw. The carriage for the 3 inch rapid fire rifles would sit on top of the pedestal mount collar, which you see here. By the stairs on the right is a ammunition recess that stored the 3 inch shells for the rifle. Down below you can see the entrances to magazine rooms one and two.
