The Prince of Wales tower is the oldest <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Martello_tower\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Martello tower<\/a> in North America.<\/p>\n<p>The forts and batteries erected around Point Pleasant Park were primarily intended to prevent enemy ships from getting into the Halifax Harbour or into the North West Arm, which runs behind the west side of the city.In 1792, the threat of an immediate French attack alerted the British military in Halifax to the possibility of a landing in the harbour and, that summer, batteries were built on the point. For the next thirty years, the Point Pleasant forts formed the first line of the Halifax Harbour defences.\u00a0In 1796-97, Edward, Duke of Kent, ordered construction of a Martello tower to be built on high ground behind the point, a location capable of defending the point batteries. The Prince of Wales Tower, named after Edward&#8217;s eldest brother, is a squat, round structure built of stone, almost three times as wide as it is high. The original construction allowed for six mounted guns on the roof and four guns on the second storey. The second storey was intended for barrack use and the ground floor for storage. Several modifications were made over the next seventy years.<\/p>\n<p>In 1866, the military offered the park to the city on a 999-year lease for an annual rent of one shilling.<\/p>\n<p>Point Pleasant Park is now used for a variety of recreational purposes, offering a beautiful location for a family walk or a healthy jog.\u00a0In season, you can see a play from local theatre group, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/halifax\/shakespeare-by-the-sea-shakespeare-hacks-for-the-whole-family\/\">Shakespeare by the Sea<\/a>, ending with a delicious ice cream at the kiosk on Black Rock beach.<\/p>\n<h2>Prince of Wales Tower (Martello Tower):<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Address:<\/strong> In Point Pleasant Park, Halifax<br \/>\n<strong>Phone:<\/strong> \u00a0(902) 426-5080<br \/>\n<strong>Website:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/parks.canada.ca\/lhn-nhs\/ns\/prince\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">parks.canada.ca<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Prince of Wales Tower, known locally as The Martello Tower: is a popular stop on a tour around the South End of Halifax&#8217;s Point Pleasant Park.
