The Tower Duplex, 1 The Officers Mess, Fort Picklecombe, Maker,

Cornwall, PL10 1JB

Ref: 94100

Fort Picklecombe was commissioned in the mid-19th century by Lord

Palmerston, Foreign Secretary and then Prime Minister under Queen Victoria.

Being an island, Great Britain was at risk from large scale enemy invasion by sea,

particularly from France. Palmerston ordered a series of coastal forts and

batteries to be built in this area to defend the large naval base at Devonport,

Plymouth. Guns were removed from the fort in the 1920s but after the outbreak

of the World War II it was reactivated and manned by the Coastal Artillery. After

the war, the fort was decommissioned and it stood derelict for many years.

Eventually it was offered for sale to property developers. A grand building,

called The Officers Mess stands in an elevated position above the main fort

complex. It is said that in order to meet the demands of the then landowner, the

Earl of Edgcumbe, The Officers Mess had to emulate Warwick Castle, complete

with towers and castellations. Today The Officers Mess is an exclusive

development of nine luxury apartments including two penthouses, with

stunning coastal views over Plymouth Sound. The property is adjacent to Mount

Edgcumbe Country Park and has views of Kingsand and Cawsand Bay to the

West and Jennycliffe to the East.
