Tenby Fort


Tenby Fort, originally uploaded by tyduffy9.

This is the picture of the fort on St. Catherine's Island. It was built in the 1860's as one of "Palmerston's Follies." It was intended to be an early warning post against possible French Invasion.

I took this picture from right outside my hotel, which, as you can see, had an incredible view from on top of the cliff. And, yes, those are palm trees that are indigenous to Great Britain.
