Nice shot Derek from that distance, did the tour of Languard Fort in Sept, what terrible conditions they had in those days.

Thanks Ken,
Thought the nice background of this one would make a good photo.
I have never been in the fort! Must do that sometime

Hi Derek,

It is quite interesting, you get a little handset and as you wander around you see a number on the various locations, you press the number and then get a historical commentary, but as I said the conditions in those days were not good and it would have been very cold and draughty for the occupants in the winter.

Regards
Ken

Hi Ken
I know a couple of the guys who are supporters of the fort and are there a lot on open days. Will take your recommendation.
regards
Derek
