Signal Hill was a place where the main reception of the first transatlantic wireless signals could be transmitted and a main harbour to watch for any ships heading in to do battle with St. John's, Newfoundland. It was a very strategically placed site and it soon became the location of harbour defences that went on from about the 18th century and continued until the Second World War.
