Polhawn Fort
A Memory of Polhawn Cove.
This rare building was owned by a close friend of mine's aunt and uncle. Their names were Mr and Mrs Honour. Their daughter Jean had a type of drapers shop down in Cawsand. This structure was a castle-style Napoleonic fort set in the head at Rame and it still had all the dungeons intact, even the prisoners' graffiti on the walls. Also it had its own billiards hall on one of the lower floors. It had a long drive down from road level, the Ford Anglia used to puff a bit going up, as they had a big Vauxhall 14hp they didn't notice it. Mr Honour was the sextant at Maker with Rame church apart from his normal duties at Devonport naval base.
