Historical Fort Stark, New Castle New Hampshire
Historical Fort Stark Portsmouth New Hampshire
Fort Stark is one of seven forts built to protect Portsmouth Harbor. Named in honor of General John Stark, commander of the New Hampshire forces at the Battle of Bennington (1777). Famous for the phrase Live Free or Die.
The other Forts located in New Hampshire are: Fort Washington, Fort Constitution, and Fort Dearborn, and in Maine: Fort Sullivan, Fort McClary and Fort Foster.
The earliest forts were built to protect the colonists. Fort Stark is known to have been in operation since at least 1746. The State of New Hampshire refortified in 1774 and voted to fully fund it in 1775. By 1778 the Fort fell into disuse.
As Portsmouth Harbor’s importance increased with its Revolutionary War shipbuilding industry and the establishment of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in 1800, additional fortification was needed. During the Federal Period of the United States, the Fort was again armed up for defense. Officially manned in 1812 by the State Militia.
There is no known activity during the Civil War at this fort.
After the Civil War, the Federal Government took over the site. Multiple constructions were attempted and abandoned during the latter 1/4 of the 1800s.
After the Spanish American War the site was demolished annd reconstructed and fortified with two large guns. In 1905 Fort Stark became a secondary position for Fort Constitution.
Towards the end of World War 1 the Gun emplacements were again dismantled.
In 1941, the fort was again reactivated for World War 2. In 1942 the Fort became communications and command center for the entire Portsmouth area.
The basic defense concept was to mine the harbor entrances and erect gun batteries. The final coastal fortification occurred during World War II (WWII) when batteries were added to Fort Foster, and Fort Dearborn was constructed.
At the end of the War the Fort was again disbanded. In 1948 the Navy reactivated the Fort and used as a drilling location.
In 1963 after the Thresher submarine incident. The fort served as a Memorial. Two deck guns were erected on the southern smaller emplacement locations.
In Winter Storm of 78 toppled one of the guns. Both guns were removed in the early 80s, and in 1983 the Fort was turned over to the Parks Department.

Explored: April 3rd 2018
Fort Stark is a former military fortification in New Castle, New Hampshire, United States. Located at Jerry's Point (also called Jaffrey's Point) on the southeastern tip of New Castle Island, most of the surviving fort was developed in the early 20th century, following the Spanish–American War, although there were several earlier fortifications on the site, portions of which survive. The fort was named for John Stark, a New Hampshire officer who distinguished himself at the Battle of Bennington in the American Revolution. The purpose of Fort Stark was to defend the harbor of nearby Portsmouth and the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. The fort remained in active use through the Second World War, after which it was used for reserve training by the US Navy. The property was partially turned over to the state of New Hampshire in 1979, which established Fort Stark Historic Site, and the remainder of the property was turned over in 1983.
At Jerry's Point there is evidence of earthwork fortification, circa 1842, and a stonework fort, circa 1873. Following the Spanish American War (1898) the improved defense of key harbors became a national priority. Fortifications such as Fort Stark were constructed on both coasts during the Endicott Period (1890-1920) and at Forts Constitution, McClary and Foster. The basic defense concept was to mine the harbor entrances and erect gun batteries. No shots were ever fired in anger.
The white building within the fort (World War II Harbor Entrance Control Post) which is disguised to look like a mansion from sea is off-limits to all park guests due to unprotected stairs, high walls, rough ground, and the results of years of neglect and vandalism. The building is surrounded by a large barbed-wire fence and posted with ‘NO TRESPASSING” signs. Trespassers will be arrested if caught.

In May of 2013 Teenagers taking a day off from school on “Senior Skip Day” made a ghastly discovery when they found the body of a man down a shaft at Fort Stark. Police Chief Don White confirmed that a body of a man between the ages of 29 and 35 was found down a 15-foot ammunition elevator shaft at the fort. The teenagers were exploring the fort when they noticed a duffel bag and a rope leading down the shaft. The police chief said what he saw shocked him. The man’s hands appeared to be behind his back and a chair was knocked down nearby.
Ottawa to Hampton Beach, NH. June 26, 2015.
My wife and I went to Hampton Beach to surf for the weekend but unfortunately the ocean was flat, the waves were maybe 2 feet high which makes very hard to get it on a 5'9 board. But we had a great time there we recommended for everyone, excellent seafood, affordable ocean view hotels and friendly people. Thanks for watching.

Odiorne Point June 15th 2014
To celebrate Father’s Day, I asked my daughter and wife to join me on a hike at Odiorne Point, located in Rye, New Hampshire.
I do love hiking and, in particular, beach and shore hikes by oceans. My only problem is the fact that not many shore line hikes exist in New Hampshire.

My Morning Walk on Hampton Beach in 4K Part One
I wanted to take the Go Pro Hero 7 Black out for a morning walk at Hampton Beach, so I did! because I figured it would be a nice opportunity to try the 4k feature out for the first time. Everything you see is right from the go pro hero 7 black. There's six parts, due to giant file size. I didn't edit anything. I'll probably edit all of these together at some point. I went down the boardwalk and looped back around on the beach.

Fort Constitution New Castle New Hampshire
Fort Constitution is a historical site located in New Castle NH. There is a lot of history associated with the old fort. Most notably back in December of 1774, when Paul Revere rode to Portsmouth from Boston to warn the colonists of the British Governments plans to reinforce what was then known as Fort William and Mary.
The colonists ended up raiding the fort and successfully took all or most of the supplies. Many people actually think that this was one of the first battles of the American Revolution. After the war the fort became known as Fort Constitution and today offers free self guided tours.
