Fort Dunree

[Bignickb]

I was visiting an aunt in Donegal, Ireland a few years back.
It rained pretty much all the time and I was taken to this place - a derelict gunner installation!
All the huts were empty but for old beds and rotting floorboards.
It started out as a napoleonic fort and was used during ww1 and ww2.


A view looking up at the site.

Views of the accomodation huts.

whoops!

I seem to have posted this twice!
I'm not sure how to remove the 2nd one but the site administration are welcome to do it for me.

Really interesting site. Love the gun mounts and it's great to see some of the guns in situ too. Good stuff.
