Description

In conjunction with the recording of eroding banks outside the North Sally Port at Fort George (EHG4981), a survey was made of two sets of World War Two landing platforms. The Platforms lay to the SW of Prince Henry’s Bastion, and to the NE of Prince Edward’s Ravelin. The NE Platforms were being eroded at a significant rate, and a measured plan was made to record their current positions for future comparison. A full photographic survey was carried out and written notes were made at both locations. <1>
