Great pics LB I bet it was quite breezy up there too Given the number of forts in the Caribbean that are built on strategic high points the toll in human life must be appalling

Oh, this is great. Some really interesting buildings and defence works there. Love the guns.
Cheers, Lb.

Ta TP. Sometimes it's waaaay to easy to get so carried away with looking around such places, and momentarily forget how such places were built
I was impressed with the History displayed at each of the sites visited -appears to be honest, and very sobering.
