stack rock FINAL 4k

A fortification at Stack Rock was first proposed by Thomas Cromwell in 1539 to protect the waterway, although this would not actually come to fruition at the time. Similar proposals were made in 1748 when Lewis Morris carried out a survey of Milford Haven, reporting on shipwrecks and navigation and recommending that a small fort be built here. Another survey followed in 1817. The Royal Dockyard at Pembroke Dock was felt to be in need of defence from the sea,[2] and in 1850 construction commenced, being completed in 1852.[3]

The fort was originally designed for two decks of artillery casemates, but only the first floor was completed and used as a gun deck. The first floor accommodated a garrison of one officer and thirty men.[3] Disarmed in 1929, it was first placed on the market in 1932 and sold for £160.[3] In 2005 it was sold once more for £150,000.[4] Concerns over the security of a nearby LNG jetty were raised in 2013, following the discovery of potential trespasser activity.
