 Fort George Ardersier Moray Firth Scotland Frederick William bastion sea sentry box is located near Ardersier and the public access is organised by Historic Scotland although it is an active military base and here looking towards the west and Prince Frederick William demi bastion at south western corner of the fortress. A very large complex of moats, bastions and buildings with spectacular outlooks to the surrounding sea and countryside it is well preserved historical site and fine example of military construction and it should be as probably the most expensive military fortification built in the Britain. Completed in 1796 and in the context of Scottish history, it appears more a statement of political empowerment to thwart any ambitions of the Highlanders towards future sedition rather than dealing with any likely military threat.
