Fort Frederick Sitting at the top of Richmond Hill about 15 minutes away from the island’s capital, Fort Frederick gives you a panoramic view of the city and beyond. The Fort’s construction was initially started by the French in 1779 but was completed by the British in 1783. With a guide, you will learn quite a bit about its tumultuous history. Without a guide, there isn’t much to be gathered about this historical site but it really doesn’t matter, because the view from this vantage point makes the trip well worth your while. rCheeky PC: Miste PC Frederick Christian
