Geocache Description:

This cache is sited close Fort Brockhurst

The Fort is one of a number of forts built in the 1850s and 1860s to protect Portsmouth and its vital harbour against a French invasion this is one of the famous Palmerston Folly’s. Largely unaltered, the parade ground, gun ramps and moated keep can all be viewed free of charge on specified days.

The fort currently stores a treasure trove of objects from English Heritage's extensive reserve collections. Objects on display have been excavated from sites in the South East and South West. They include stonework, textiles, jewellery and furniture from many periods, as well as rarely-seen treasures on tour from stores in the North and East.

For those unfamiliar with the area there is normally free parking available in the fort's own car park and additional free parking is also available along with the commercial vehicles in Wingate Road not far from The Range superstore.

You are looking for a small box suitable for small swaps, tractable’s and geocoins.

Please take care when replacing the cache to ensure it is suitably hidden.
