Youtube Video:



This was our last stop off for the day on our day trip out in Portsmouth - even know I had been here many times before I never thought about taking photos until now - sadly some of it is blocked off due to work getting down on the sea wall, but will go back in a later date.


sadly not much history can be found on this site - but I managed to dig up some bits


so apparently only surviving section of the ramparts and moat


the smaller section that you can not get to atm due to works going on is the spur Redout the readout was built in the 1680s
