About Fort Belan

Fortifications, Historic, Interesting Places, Castles

Fort Belan (alternative: Belan Fort; pronounced: Bell-ann) is a coastal fortress in North Wales. It is located opposite Abermenai Point, at the south-western end of the Menai Strait, on the coast of Gwynedd, in the parish of Llanwnda. Situated at the tip of the Dinlle Peninsula, the windblown, north-westernmost point of the Welsh mainland, the fort is cut off twice a day by the incoming tide. Of geographic importance because of its location, Fort Belan is an access point to both the north Wales coast and to Liverpool, England. It is said to have cost £30,000 to build the fort.
