It leads down from the top of the Rock of Gibraltar,[1] and skirts the Upper Rock Nature Reserve. DescriptionThe road takes its name from an old signal station built by the British on the clifftop. A footpath known as either Green's Lodge Road or Green's Lodge footpath leads out through a break in the (former) high-voltage fencing on one side of the road. This footpath leads to Green's Lodge Battery.[2] The boundary fencing still has signs in English, Spanish and Arabic warning people of the high-voltage fencing and not to enter the restricted Ministry of Defence area. Actually the land was given to the Gibraltar Ornithological and Natural History Society in 2005 and is not restricted or the fence electrified, although the area at the top of the rock which carries radio antennae is still restricted.[2] Governor's Lookout Battery is located along the road and the battery's name is because this is thought to be where the defence was directed during the Great Siege of Gibraltar. It is now the location of Gibraltar's scouts camp.[3]References1. ^{{cite book|last1=Brown|first1=Jules|last2=Baskett|first2=Simon|last3=Garvey|first3=Geoff|title=The Rough Guide to Spain|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Fjyv9lYSoGgC&pg=PT627|accessdate=2 May 2013|date=1 April 2009|publisher=Rough Guides Limited|isbn=978-1-84836-837-8|page=627}} {{Streets in Gibraltar}}{{Europe-road-stub}}{{Gibraltar-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite web|last=Crone|first=Jim|title=Green's Lodge Battery - Nature Trail|url=http://www.discovergibraltar.com/pages/mainlogo/mainfrm.htm|publisher=DiscoverGibraltar.com|accessdate=6 May 2013|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130905140025/http://www.discovergibraltar.com/pages/mainlogo/mainfrm.htm|archivedate=5 September 2013|df=dmy-all}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Scouts|url=http://www.gibscouts.com/scouts.html|publisher=Gibraltar Scouts Association|accessdate=24 March 2013|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110711093040/http://www.gibscouts.com/scouts.html|archivedate=11 July 2011|df=dmy-all}} 1 : Streets in Gibraltar |
