The Trustees of Slough Fort Preservation Trust are delighted to announce that Slough Fort has been awarded a significant grant by the Heritage Fund. Slough Fort has been working towards the grant for nearly 4 years together with other groups across the Hoo Peninsula as part of a project known as “Whose Hoo”. Slough Fort will receive the grant to provide visitor facilities for the fort and transform its magazine into a Heritage Centre showcasing the rich Military history of the Peninsula. Chairman Colin Davis said “This grant is a major step forward to making Slough Fort a first class tourist attraction and community asset, making the fort sustainable with the provision of the Heritage Centre, a cafĂ© and modern toilets. We would like to thank the Heritage Fund and our partners within Whose Hoo for making this happen”.
