Built as one of five "Abbot Quad" batteries in which four mortar pits (with four mortar each) were arranged in a quadrangle. These batteries were originally configured as a single battery but were later administratively separated into two batteries and a second name assigned. Battery Lincoln was rebuilt into a more conventional configuration at great cost.
