  • Constructed in the 1860's, Grain fort was used to help defend the mouth of the Themes river from French invasion.
    However, in the 1960's the fort was all but completely demolished and very little remains above ground. Underground...

    Amazing the amount of history you guys have beneath your feet Thanks Simon

    I've been rewatching your Tunnels playlist, and this time I'm really struck by how much you learned about what you're seeing at this site (and others in general) since your previous video of this place. Perhaps less noticeable the first time through, in real time, because I was learning it with you. Thanks friend, for all the work you've put into this, and for so long. It's brilliant.

    • @SubExploration
      @SubExploration  Před 6 lety

      I don’t think this place was actually involved in a conflict so I doubt that anyone would have died here for it to be haunted. But, quite a few people died building places like this so you never know.

      @@SubExploration i was also thinking if that place was built in the 1860s, the men that built that might have known of the american civil war going on at that time. i wonder what they were talking about. "first they fight us, then they fight each other". maybe.
