Yashwantgarh - An island fortification #BlogchatterA2Z

An island fortification off the coast of Maharashtra in Ratnagiri district , Yashwantgarh.

 


On three sides it was protected by a ditch which is no longer visible . On the fourth side there was a wall but at present , all the walls are in a ruined condition.

A ship i.e. the HMS Outram sank here on 1 January 1817 . After this incident , a lighthouse at nearby Jaitapur was built.

Not much to write about forts with these hard letters but anyway !

I am participating in #BlogchatterA2Z 2022. Are you ?
