Fort Belan




This coastal fortification in the parish of Llanwrda, Gwynedd was built in 1775 by Thomas Wynn , then MP for Caernarvonshire and later to become Lord Newborough . He was worried about the vulnerability of Britain’s coastline to attack, particularly because of the on-going American War Of Independence .
