Fort Brockhurst Moat & Defences
Fort Brockhurst Moat & Defences
Any attacking force trying to take the fort would be faced by a deep, wide moat, articulating cannon and row upon row of rifle fire through gun ports at several different levels in the external walls.
Inside the fort, was a secondary line of defence identical to the first. Any opposing force breaking through the outer wall would have to do it all again when they met the second line of defences.
Any enemy force approaching the fort would be met by withering lines of crossfire from cannon and rifles from whatever angle they approached.
The lines of fire did not have any blind spots. The enemy would be met with cannon or rifle fire from many different angles from whatever direction they approached.
