French Guns and Spanish Works Threaten Gibraltar Forts

The Dublin Gazette describes Spanish fortifications and new works at Gibraltar, with Spaniards using batteries and trenches against the British position. It notes a planned revival of coastal defenses, the potential destruction of late Spanish works, and implications for a future town and pier. Reports on ships, regiments, and forces converging at the bay are linked to ongoing expedition plans and possible peace terms.
