Fort Perch Rock
Fort Perch Rock was completed in 1829. The guns were only ever fired twice, at the start of the two world wars. In both cases, warning shots were fired to dissuade errant ships from entering the Port of Liverpool. Nowadays the fort is a museum.
For current visiting hours, please visit the website of the museum.
