This small fort was built just before WW1, it is made of concrete and has a dry moat which is defended by two counterscarps built into the face of the moat. It had two MG turrets and a 75mm gun turret. Not normally open so we thought we were in luck when we saw a car and we found the door open. No such luck we were told that it was closed to the public except for heritage days (for info 21 & 22 Sept 2019). We took a walk around the moat and scaled the bank to the top of the fort but it was all locked up.
