Portsdown Hill in Pompey, and it's fascinating history...
Discussion
If this has been discussed before on here, with the same link, then apologies - please ignore!
Like many of us on the South Coast, I often enjoy a tea and a burger on Portsdown Hill in Pompey, especially after a Sunday blat
Then last year I visited the new-ish, excellent Royal Armouries Museum at Fort Nelson, whereupon I found out some more about the place, and it's strategic military importance over the years. Following that, I was then part of an exercise at Fort Widley, which really piqued my interest even more!
Recently, a friend of mine pointed me to a fascinating website all about the history of Portsdown, including all the tunnels, the military history, etc.

Enjoy!
