access to the cliffe fort visited 19th April 2013
I visited Cliffe Fort to see the Brennan Torpedo launch pad which was very interesting. However I was unable to follow instructions published on the web for actually visiting the site, the published instruction tells you to follow the 'Concrete Road' which is now controlled by a High Locked gate. this resulted in a 3.8 mile return journey diversion along the sea wall to the East and North of the castle and gravel works. The walk by the concrete road would have been only 2.3 miles there and back. However the diversion is very pleasant. I understand that the gate is kept locked for security and safety reasons because of the working of heavy vehicles on site, and also to keep out 'travellers', and vandals looking for somewhere to burn out stolen vehicles. The Fort itself is now securely enclosed in fences, but the launching pad is not enclosed, being on the beach side of the site and cutting through the sea wall so is open to easy inspection..

Adjustments to text for consistency
I have made some adjustments to the text of this article to ensure consistency with the Brennan torpedo article. This was necessary because the article is about to be promoted at DYK, and inconsistencies of this type are supposed to be resolved before promotion. I have gone with the specialized source as it's clearly much better than the generic source used for the original claim. Gatoclass (talk) 11:33, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
