At the north-eastern corner of the Walls once stood Coward's Bastion. It was removed in the early 19th century. This bastion was so named because of its distance from the heavy fighting during the Great Siege.
Also at this point is Magazine Gate. Between it and Shipquay Gate the visitor can see seven cannons overlooking the Guildhall. One of these was presented by Queen Elizabeth in 1590 and the others were donated by various London Guilds. On the outside of this raised section of the Walls is a bronze plaque commemorating the heroism of Captain Michael Browning who captained the ship Mountjoy as it broke the boom in 1689. He relieved the city but fell, shot dead in his moment of glory.
Further along, past Shipquay Gate, lies the Water Bastion where the River Foyle used to touch the Walls at high tide.
