A lot of history packed in to a historic fort - with a jolly nice cup of tea and home baking!
Landguard Fort的点评
点评：It's quite a few years since I last visited Landguard Fort and it is certainly worth a couple of hours of anybody's time. The history of the place is astonishing, although the current buildings only date back to the 18th century. On a blisteringly hot June Saturday, it was the coolest place in town and I, for one, was grateful to escape the sun's rays.
In fact, my first port of call was to the tearoom, where I partook of an excellent cup of Yorkshire Tea and a couple of nice cakes, baked by a local woman. My bill - a bargain £4.60.
As I supped, two of the many elderly volunteers, without whom the place could not open, as there are only two full-time staff, told me that it had been a really quiet day, blaming problems with the Orwell Bridge and the heat.
So I virtually had the place to myself, enjoying the excellent audio guide I had downloaded to my phone as I wandered around. From minelaying to cold war control and World War 1 and 2 sea and air defences, there's a lot to take in.
My only criticism is that they need a lot more seats for folk like me to perch on for a moment or two, because it's quite a long trek with a fair few stairs. In fact, I 'abandoned ship' on the upper floor simply because I was weary and, as an English Heritage Member who lives just a 15 minute cycle ride away, I can pop in again tomorrow and the next day as well, if only for a nice cup of tea and a bit of home baking.

翻译：距离我上次参观兰德加德堡已经过去好几年了，它绝对值得任何人花几个小时去参观。虽然目前的建筑只能追溯到18世纪，但这里的历史令人惊叹。在一个酷热难耐的六月星期六，这里是镇上最凉爽的地方，而我，尤其庆幸自己能躲过烈日的毒辣。
事实上，我首先去了茶室，在那里我品尝了一杯美味的约克郡茶，还吃了几块由当地一位妇女烤制的美味蛋糕。我的账单——4.60英镑，很划算。
晚餐时，两位年长的志愿者告诉我，今天真是太冷清了。由于只有两名全职员工，如果没有他们，这里就无法营业。他们告诉我，这主要是因为奥威尔桥的问题和天气太热。
于是，我几乎独自一人待在这个地方，一边欣赏着下载到手机上的精彩语音导览，一边四处闲逛。从布雷到冷战时期的控制，再到一战和二战时期的海空防御，这里有很多值得了解的地方。
我唯一的不满是，他们需要多设几个座位，让我这样的人可以稍事休息，因为路途遥远，而且要爬好几级台阶。事实上，我“弃船”到楼上，只是因为累了。作为英国遗产协会的成员，我住在离这里只有15分钟自行车路程的地方，明天和后天我还可以再来，哪怕只是为了喝杯好茶，吃点自制烘焙食品。
