Portland Breakwater

Portland Breakwater
Fort at the East Ship Channel Entrace to Portland harbour - see PiP

Situated across Portland Harbour's four breakwater arms are various defensive structures and related monuments. At the Breakwater Fort is a World War II 29 millimetre spigot mortar emplacement, a pillbox, and a battery observation post. Further along the same arm, towards Portland, are two World War II coast artillery searchlights.

Smashing series of the harbour and breakwaters. I've sailed from and returned to that place many times on various ships before the Royal Navy stopped using it.

We used to have a "war" there nearly every Thursday..!!
