Henry VIII built the first fort here, and Queen Elizabeth I famously rallied her army nearby to face the threat of the Armada!
There’s lots to see and do. Explore the magazine houses and enter the bastion magazine passages to feel what it was like for the soldiers who lived there.
See the interesting exhibition which traces the role of the fort in the defence of London.
There are lovely gardens and picnic spots, an adventure playground and a chance to see the big guns!
