Palmerstone Fort tour today
« on: 19 February 2013, 23:39 »
Amazing place for a guided tour - Bembridge Fort down here on the IOW.

Awful place to try and take images on the hoof, but hey - work with what you have (no flash - DOH!)

Exterior shots taken just before mid-day so hideous light on them, too.

Lots of narrative in the descriptions.

Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.
