Fort Lytton - National Park - Brisbane
Lovely walk with Louise.
Fort Lytton is one of several coastal fortifications built along Australia's coast in the 19th century to safeguard shipping lanes and ports from possible enemy raids.
From 1881 until the 1930s, Fort Lytton was Brisbane's front line of defence and is regarded as the birthplace of Queensland's military history. Regular training camps in military warfare were a highlight of Queensland's political and social calendar.
This classic example of a coastal fortress was surrounded by a water-filled moat, and its heavy armaments were concealed behind grassy ramparts connected by underground passages. After World War II, the fort had outlived its usefulness and fell into disrepair until petroleum refining company Ampol took over the site in 1963. The fort became a national park in 1988 which today protects this important link with Australian military past.

The Fort Lytton, complete 1 hour 15 minute historical tour. I was lucky to catch this amazing excursion that happened only once a year, on Anzac Day. It was also a very special moment for the last remaining cannon in the fort which would be demounted the next day.

FORT LYTTON NATIONAL PARK
Fort Lytton National Park's main attraction is Fort Lytton Historic Military Precinct, The park was created in 1990 as Queensland's first historic national park. It initially contained only heritage-listed Fort Lytton, a colonial coastal fort that continued to operate as a military base until after the Second World War. The park was extended in 1999 to include Lytton Quarantine Station which occupied abutting land. The Quarantine Station is also heritage-listed, but is only open to the public on special occasions. The park is located in the Brisbane suburb of Lytton, in Queensland, Australia.

Walk Through Of my recreation of Fort Lytton
This was for one of my university assignments and pretty much the whole back story behind it was that it was based during WW2 and the fort was a very active base and because of all of the bombings the mountains disappeared after the war

Spectre Hunters - Fort Lytton
We are at a place called fort Lytton in Brisbane, it is on the mouth of Brisbane river and was used to defend Brisbane from the Russians in 1840 I believe.
We went there hoping to find something we could claim as a discovery, but found almost nothing but some cool footage and laughs.
Hope you enjoy.
