Description


Fort Nelson was built in the 1860s, as part of a chain of fortifications protecting the great naval harbour of Portsmouth in Hampshire and its Royal Dockyard from a feared French invasion. Covering nearly 19 acres and now fully restored, Fort Nelson sits majestically atop Portdsown Hill, with amazing views of the Solent and the Meon Valley. The Fort stands today as a monument to the skills and ingenuity of Victorian engineering and architecture. Opened in 1995 as home to the Royal Armouries collection of artillery, Fort Nelson has over 350 big guns and historic cannon on display, all part of the National Museum of Arms and Armour. From the Great Turkish Bombard of 1464, that once protected the Dardanelles to Saddam Husseins infamous Supergun and covering every period of history from every corner of the world.

I wonder how many shots did you take whilst visiting this place David, did you run out of memory or battery power? Just wondering if I might need to get some more in if I can manage to visit this place. I usually have 6 gig of memory and four lots of batteries, I also carry a mobile charger for charging in the car. I'm absolutely loving this series, you are certainly whetting my appetite. Excellent work. Bravo!!!!!
