Old Fort
“In the forty years of its “benevolent abandonment” the Old Fort’s beautiful, two hundred-year-old giant silk cotton tree, English cannons, and faded murals of local boating and fishing scenes, painted by Stephen Hawes, a guest of the Cuttings, were the subject of wonder.”
- Quote from Amanda’s book, Island Hopping
