Battery Hambright is a historic military installation that was built in the late 19th century to defend the entrance to the Savannah River. It played a role in the Spanish-American War and is a reminder of the importance of coastal defense during that era.
Battery Hambright is a well-preserved example of concrete gun battery architecture. It is one of the few remaining examples of its type in the United States.
