Ardersier: Fort George

Description

Probably the largest and most spectacular fort built on the UK mainland. The perimeter of the walls is over 1KM and the site still has all its original buildings. There are lots of museums to explore and several small exhibitions on the use of the fort over its life. The fort is still used as barracks for the army so there are some areas that are off limits
