Thorn Fort, Milford Haven, 1856. Creator: Unknown
Thorn Fort, Milford Haven, [Wales], 1856. Thorn Island, or Thorney, is a barren precipitous rock...Upon this island rock there has been erected, in the course of the last three years, the fortification...[which] is of no specific form, but seems to have been adapted by the architect to the shape of the rock upon which it is built, and, being strongly made of limestone, has a solid, compact appearance, and seems well suited for the purpose designed. The garrison of Thorn Island consists at present of a lieutenant, three non-commissioned officers, and twenty four men of the Pembrokeshire Artillery Militia; and the place is defended by nine guns, all sixty-eight pounders, and is pierced for musketry'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856
