Assume you've seen this

I'm quite surprised there isn't anything on the Palmerston Forts website, but they might have something and just not have it up. They can be found at

I have some history of the cottages on a hard drive so will have a dig. Are we talking the row of coastguard cottages or the reservoir keepers cottage?

Best ports of call for info would be the records office in Plymouth & also joining the Devils Point preservation group.

its the row of cottages that are up there behind the car park

If you have any info on the reservoir keepers cottage I would love to read it... Does anyone know who actually owns the building?
