About
Grey Point Fort is one of the best preserved early 20th century coastal forts anywhere in the British Isles.
Situated in Helen's Bay, Grey Point Fort hosts a number of special commemorative events during the year.
The Fort was completed in 1907 with at its heart two massive 6 inch diameter guns which commanded the entrance to Belfast Lough. While a key part of Belfast’s defences against naval attack, it proved of limited value during the German air attacks on the city in 1941. There are still two magnificent 23 feet long guns.
Visitors can also see the original observation post and three searchlight positions.
