Lads, does anyone know much about the history of this fort. It is the maddest place in the world for a bit of exploration/adventure. When I was 12-16, this was where I spent my childhood exploring the pier, the gym, and even once we got into the locked area that someone had left open. Went deep inside and found old water tanks loads of names scrathed on the walls going back to the sixties. And all the while trying to avoid the caretaker. Standing on the edge of that moat would still give ANYONE the sh*ts.
I know it was used by the British during WW1 and the Irish during WW2. The rails are still along the pier(for cannons or torpedoes or something) and I read somewhere on the net that it is being opened as a museum. The sooner the better!
