Following an agreement with HM Government of Gibraltar, Fortress Attractions Ltd (FAL) will provide and manage leisure activities at the Northern Defences.
In their submission, FAL included all the requirements on how fundamentally, the Northern Defences will remain under the Government’s ownership, but FAL will manage and maintain the land and facilities to be provided within it.
Under the proposal, FAL will invest approx. £4 million to create a first-class visitor attraction, employing 20 people. The attraction will include the provision and management of leisure facilities such as heritage tours, zip-lines, rock and wall climbing, archery and children’s play inflatables. A large part of the land will always remain accessible to the public with picnic tables and equipment for public use and enjoyment.
The agreement includes a lease to refurbish the former Landport Cottage for use as a ticket office and interpretation centre for the Northern Defences.
