It was built between 1872 and 1878 by the British. Fort St Leonardo still exists, and is in reasonable repair, though a house has been built inside the ditch and the ditch in-filled to create an access. The seaward ditches are all in good repair.

The fort inside the ditch is not open to the public The photographs were taken during a private tour.
