Map of Knip Bay

Title Leupe: De Booven Baay van de Knipp.

In 1776, three small batteries were built in the vicinity of Knip Bay(s). Two were located on the Upper and Lower Bay, and a third higher up on the coast between them. These were each depicted by Engineer Serz on a separate map; here the one on the Upper Bay is shown. The designation Boschieter Huijs (Gunners’ House), which Serz mentions on the map, refers to the accommodation for the artillerymen.
