It was founded in June 1975 at Pembroke College Oxford, to provide an opportunity for those interested in fortifications to get to know one another, and to publish their research. Membership now stands at over 600, and includes professional architects and historians, retired or serving members of the armed forces, and amateur enthusiasts. Interests range from the earliest provisions for artillery, through 16th century Italian fortifications to Second World War pillboxes and Cold War concrete. Members have been involved in restoration schemes such as Fort Amherst, Harwich Redoubt, Needles Battery, Newhaven Fort and many others in the United Kingdom and around the world. The group produces two publications: FORT, the refereed journal, and Casemate, a magazine which appears three times a year. Each year a Conference is held at a different location in the United Kingdom, with a programme of lectures and visits to local fortifications. Conferences have been held at such locations as Dover, Plymouth, Hull, Portland, Edinburgh, the Isle of Wight, Pembroke, London and Harwich. There is also an annual International Study Tour and the group has in the past visited Gibraltar, the Maginot Line, Malta, The Netherlands, Italy, Belgium, Switzerland, USA, France, Denmark, Poland, Rhodes, Bermuda, Germany, Crete, Slovenia and many other places.

  • The Impact Off Crusader Castles Upon European Western Castles
    THE IMPACT OF CRUSADER CASTLES UPON EUROPEAN WESTERN CASTLES IN THE MIDDLE AGES JORDAN HAMPE MAY 2009 A SENIOR PROJECT SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENT FOR THE DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF ARTS IN ARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDIES UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN- LA CROSSE Abstract: During the Middle Ages, the period from roughly AD 1000-1450, the structure of castles changed greatly from wooden motte and bailey to stone keeps and defenses within stone city walls. The reason for the change was largely influenced by the crusades as Europeans went to the Holy Lands to conquer. In addition to conquering, these kings brought back a new way of designing and fortifying their castles in England, Wales and France. Without the influence of the crusades, what we think of as true middle age castles would not exist. For my paper I will analyze the impact the crusades had on forming the middle age castles by evidence surviving in the archaeological record from before and after the crusades as well as modifications done on castles to accommodate crusader changes to show the drastic influence of crusader castle fortifications upon English, Welsh and French castles. 1 Introduction Construction of what is believed to be true middle age castles from A.D. 1000 to 1450 began as kings arrived back from the crusades to the Holy Lands, bringing with them ideas of how to make their castles grander and more easily defensible. Before the crusades William I of England was beginning to develop a new concentric style of castle beginning with the Tower of London. After the crusades many English, Welsh and French kings took the concentric concept and combined it with what they saw on the crusades and developed it to become majestic castles and fortresses like Chateau Gaillard in France, Dover Castle in England, and Caernarvon Castle in Wales.

  • Housesteads Roman Fort – the Grandest Station
    housecovervol2.qxd 17/06/2009 15:50 Page 1 HOUSESTEADS ROMAN FORT HOUSESTEADS ROMAN Housesteads is one of the most HOUSESTEADS ROMAN FORT – important forts on Hadrian’s Wall. Extensive excavations were THE GRANDEST STATION carried out between 1874 and 1981 by Newcastle University. Combining the results with those of excavations done between 1959 and 1961 by Volume 2 The Material Assemblages Durham University, we now have a complete plan of the Alan Rushworth north-east part of the fort. These excavations uncovered principally Buildings XIII, XIV and XV, plus stretches of ram- part between the north and east gates, along with a multitude of features and stratigraphic evidence, revealing not only the sequences but also large finds assemblages. In addition to shedding much light on the material culture of the fort’s occupants and the structural and chronological relationships between various parts of the fort, limited reinvestigation of Building XIV and excavation of the east end of Building XV enabled significant reinterpretation of the origi- nal conclusions reached by the Durham investigators, including some redating of structures. These excavations uncover the full 300-year period during which the fort formed an integral part of the Roman military frontier, for much if not all of that time the base of the cohors I Tungrorum mil- 2Volume Alan Rushworth liaria peditata.
