Landport Gate


This gate, reconstructed in 1729 by the British on the site of earlier Moorish and Spanish gates, was at the time the only landward access into the city. It was through this gate that the troops emerged to carry out the surprise attack on the Spanish lines during the Great Siege – the Sortie.
