Don't be confused by the text in the article. The tower at Grain is not a Martello tower at all. This is just the name it was given locally, because of its similar appearance.

Wrong Title

This article is titled Grain Fort, but is mostly about Grain Tower. They are two separate, though close things. We need to either demonstrate that they are substantially linked as one military unit or split them into two articles and get some more info on Grain Fort.

Correct. I've created Grain Tower and will shortly turn this article into one focusing solely on Grain Fort. Prioryman (talk) 09:48, 14 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
