    I remember when they still had a manned coast guard tower there back in the mid 70s. Spent the day up in it as a teenager while my father did work inside the fort on the ships navigation marker that was there.

    I saw James Brown play here in 2000/01, I think both Atomic Kitten and Rolf Harris were on the line up too, sadly. I can’t find any footage of the gig which is annoying but the oddest place to catch Mr. Dynamite as you can imagine, especially if you know Gosport and it’s bleak atmosphere back then.

    The corrupt establishment allows our heratage to rot. English heratage is funding too many big dinners and national trust is sanctioned for expenses.

    Wasn't Fort Nelson the last place with a working guthrie rolling bridge? Also what is the name of the song?

      Parts of the bridge mechanism survives at Fort Nelson but it is not working. Rinella Battery in Malta has restored theirs. The music is Rock of Ages by Musikshake.

      traderjoes they made a coffer Dam around it. Fort took 16 yrs to build. It's never fired a shot in anger. Got it'd own fresh water water supply below the sea bed at 24 thousand gallons a day. I have drunk tea made on the fort with the water. Tastes lovely.

    we have sort of the same thing here in california in the san fransico area they were coastal artilery implacments that were put in place in the 1940,s and decommisioned in the early 1950,s and on the marin side of the bay there is a nike missle base that is decommisioned and now a musiem (spelled it wrong ).
