St Catherine's Castle

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

St Catherine's Castle is a small fort commissioned by Henry VIII. It is a two-storey building built to protect Fowey Harbour in Cornwall, United Kingdom.

During 1999 there was some controversy regarding this site and others under the care of the English Heritage organization. Members of a pressure group, the Revived Cornish Stannary Parliament, confiscated several signs bearing the English Heritage name.[1][2][3]
