I'm glad you liked it, Alex. It's an interesting fort with a great history. Vicki

Thank you Steve and Carol for your comments. Yup - the palm trees are rising out of the covert. This is a moated fort, but it was mostly used to keep livestock safe during sieges. When enemies approached from the Atlantic, seawalls would be opened to fill it with water for added protection. The lighthouse is across the bay to the right. Vicki

Good point of view, and an interesting subject. I like the little glimpse of the sea in the distance, and the three palm (?) trees on the left.
