Crownhill is an area of northern Plymouth, in the English county of Devon.
It was originally known as Knackersknowle, meaning "the hill of the knacker's yard". In 1860 a fort was built on a high piece of land, just to the north west of the village, on the site of a building called Crown Hill, presumably because of its dominating position overlooking all the surrounding area. The village and surrounding area eventually adopted the same name. The fort was one of many Palmerston Forts built around Plymouth under the instruction of the then Prime Minister, Lord Palmerston, as a defence for the dockyard at Devonport against the French. The construction of these forts was eventually found to be unnecessary and as such they have been called "Palmerston's Follies". Crownhill Fort has now been restored as a tourist attraction and its guns are fired more often now then they ever were in anger. For a long time Crownhill was predominantly a garrison area with Crownhill and Plumer barracks and more recently Seaton barracks, demolished finally in the late 1990s.
A crutch, that's easy to find in me
Too much, the muse is not kind these days
well don't be alarmed for now
the past wont change it seems
the hurt from here and now
it wont be your everything
to each his own
to each his own
there's a better time
To sort out the truth from the lies
Lost touch, with what's called reality
Enough, cant keep up with promises made
don't be alarmed for now
the past wont change it seems
the hurt from here and now
it wont be your everything
to each his own
To each his own
There's a better time
To sort out the truth from the lies
To each his own
To each his own
There's a better time
To sort out the truth from the lies
To each his own
To each his own
There's a better time
To sort out the truth from the lies.
To each his own
To each his own
