This German plan shows all the defences around Cap de la Hague. StP351 could fire 360° from its six open emplacements. But due to Allied bombing Hitler ordered casemates to be built to protect the guns. So four R679's were in the process of being built.

Two ages of a batterie position are here. First the six open emplacements and then the four casemates. Due to heavy Allied bombing Hitler insisted batteries were to b casemated to give them better protection and on the 29 June 19444 it was heavily bombed and many of the open emplacements were hit badly.
