Fort Regent
Fort Regent is a 19th-century fortification, and leisure centre, on Mont de la Ville (Town Hill), in St. Helier, Jersey.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Fort Regent facilities, bookings and opening hours )〕 The fort is in close proximity to the fortified South Hill, Engineers Barracks at La Collette, and overlooks the 16th-century Elizabeth Castle and harbour to the west. The fort's main features are substantial curtain walls, ditches, a glacis, redoubts, bastions, and redans (or demi-bastions). A parade ground was in the centre, which is now built upon, and covered with a roof. ==Pre-history of Le Mont de la Ville== A dolmen was located on the hill, prior to the construction of Fort Regent. In 1785, workmen, who were leveling the area for use as a parade ground, uncovered the dolmen.〔 The dolmen was gifted to Henry Seymour Conway, who removed it to his home, Park Place, near Henley-on-Thames, in 1788.
