HBM

Nothe Gardens with Nothe Fort in the background and PiP. ~ Weymouth.

This 19th century Fort includes a museum highlighting coastal defence. Built by the Victorians to protect Portland Harbour, Nothe Fort is one of the best preserved forts of its kind. The advances in technology that affected the fort are explained through many displays, exhibits and audio visual facilities located on the ramparts, gun decks and maze of underground passageways. You can enjoy the stunning and far reaching views of the Jurassic Coast from the picnic areas on the Ramparts. These will provide one of the best vantage points on the south coast.

Great main shot Rosa. From your notes it sounds like a place well worth a visit for a number of reasons.

Thank you Doug. They hold a lot of interesting events at the Fort and are involved in many educational events for schools. Sophie has been with her old school for a 1940's evacuee experience, which she loved. They used old money and were dressed for the occasion.

Best wishes,
Rosa.

El fuerte se ve impresionante, parece como una ciudad amurallada, de gruesos muros. El banco está en una pequeña elevación que proporcionará una vista espectacular de la costa Sur. Como siempre agradecer tus elaboradas informaciones de la foto. Saludos, Rosa.
