Not that much too see here, but I also think not much has changed since it was built.
It your having a walk around Dartmouth it’s worth walking to see it, if nothing else the views are nice & the area around it is interesting.

The fort is still there pretty much as it probably was. Historically interesting and worthy of a visit down the cobbled stone street.

Well worth looking at. It’s very small and very easy to find and walk to if staying near in or near Dartmouth. Great crabbing spot nearby too. Highly recommended

It's something we'll worth doing before or after visiting the castle. It's not very big, but well worth a visit. It's on the Quay edge, so a short walk along the Quay. Lovely views across the river, and you can see the castle from the Fort.

This fort is part of the early defences of the town and it easily found at the end of the high street. It is worth a visit, has a board to interpret what you are seeing and best of all, it is free!

This is best seen from the river.
As already said, there isn't a lot to see, but it played an important part in Dartmouth history and provided a second line of defence to protect the harbour, after Dartmouth and Kingswear Castles and the chain between them.
It is a pleasant short walk from the town centre. Entry is either off Bayard's Cove Road or down steep stone steps from Southtown.
The thick stone walls have eleven gun holes all carefully angled to give complete coverage of the river. Around the top was a parapetted walkway used by soldiers armed with longbows and handguns.
It was never tested in naval assault although it was used as a temporary machine gun post in WW2.
It may not justify a visit in its own right but makes an interesting break if walking to Dartmouth Castle.

Lovely walk along the estuary path to this example of medieval defences, with interesting information. Many small interesting shops along the way. Dartmouth is a lovely place to visit with many lovely old buildings to see. Whilst walking back to the car park, we visited St. Saviours Church, a lovely old church, well worth a visit,

Not much to see but it's in good condition and interesting info. Only a 5 min thing to visit tho. Nice to look at on the way to the castle.
The river leading to it and Dartmouth itself are well worth a visit. In Dartmouth there are some lovely old buildings and some good shops and very nice bakeries.
There are boat trips, a paddle steamer you can go on and a river ferry across to Kingswear. There is also a boat you can catch to the castle if you don't want to walk.
The river is very popular for crabbing. The quayside gets really full with people crabbing. We went and brought a crab net etc from the shops and had a go, really good fun and easy to catch loads of crabs (bacon is a winner).
