Ninety seconds on Gates Fort
Gates Fort is the best seat on the channel when a ferry, tender or cruise ship is due through the Cut, so time your visit for one. With the water empty, fifteen minutes covers it.
Cut Road ends at the gate, and you can take in the whole fort from there: a guardhouse at the entrance and two George III guns still mounted inside. Go straight up to the top.
From the top the channel runs almost at your feet, with the harbour on one side and open ocean on the other. Fishing boats, ferries, tenders and container ships all come through. Pair it with Alexandra Battery, a few minutes further along the road.
