I have to feel for the guys stationed on the earlier forts. The lower ranks had to sleep in the bowels of the supports.
 I'm taking a guess that this was one of those earlier Maunsell forts? |

 The platforms with just two pillars are Navy forts, and the ones in the OP are the Army forts. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maunsell_Sea_Forts One Maunsell Sea Fort is now a nation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principality_of_Sealand Whenever I think of Maunsell though, I always think of Richard Maunsell who designed completely different things: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Maunsell |
