Fort on the Heugh with a View

            Fort on the Heugh (Holy Island)
The remains of a 17th century stone fort. It was built in 1671 to house guns, which helped protected the small harbour known as The Ouse from a perceived threat from Dutch Privateers on the east coast. 
It stands on the southern edge of the island. It has a five-sided enclosure that is much in ruin and containing a square redoubt with a gun platform. The remains of several turrets can be seen on the enclosure wall.
Lindisfarne castle can be seen on the horizon.
