General

       This website was created for the documentation of the Forts of New England including Gun Batteries Fort Fire Control Towers etc. This site does not include camps, air force stations, navy bases, torpedo stations nor radar sites (Some exceptions). Any documents displayed on this site are public records or can be accessed by requesting said documents from their original source which I would be happy to provide you with. There are no classified government documents displayed on this website. Many of the sites shown on this website were accessed with EXPLICIT PERMISSION from the landowner or organization who oversees the site. Trespassing IS AN ARRESTABLE OFFENSE!!!! The New England Defenses website and organization is run and operated by Julian Malcolm not any commercial organization or company. I (Julian Malcolm) will not hold accountability for your stupid choices. Contributors on this site can be found via their user page with a contact for inquiries on this website only!

Safety

Exploring Coastal Defense sites is very dangerous if the person is not well prepared or knowledgeable on the current condition of that site. Being careless around these sites can lead to serious injury or even death. We do not recommend that inexperienced people explore these sites as many are unsafe and are deteriorating rapidly. It is important to know what you are getting into and just make sure to use common sense. If a site is fenced off, it is probably for good reason. I am not a professional explorer but I do know my way around forts and do proper research regarding their safety. Do not do what I do. New England Defenses or any of our affiliates ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE for INJURY or INFRACTIONS from the exploration of Coastal Defense Sites.
