		Cospicua, joining Senglea to Vittoriosa at the head of Dockyard Creek, was awarded its title by Grand Master Zondadari because of its part in the Great Siege of 1565, but the truth is that little was there before that time and, being indefensible, all buildings were razed to deny them to the Turks.
		Cospicua and indeed Senglea and Vittoriosa were protected in the years after the Siege by the building of the Margherita Lines around the hill of that name, but also called the Firenzuola Lines in honour of the Florentine architect Father Marcolana.
		Cospicua then has experienced great suffering and neglect but steps are at last being taken to revitalize an historic area and make the scene within the bastions as attractive as the view from them over the docks and surrounding countryside.
