FORT AMHERST IS ONE OF KENT’S MOST ACTIVE PARANORMAL LOCATIONS
For over 300 years, thousands of feet have walked Fort Amherst’s
grounds, and thousands of lives have been connected to its deep
ditches and protective walls. Birth, death and the dread of war;
love, laughter and health; illness, fear and sorrow: all have left their
imprint through the ages.
If you want to discover more about those souls for whom Fort
Amherst was once home, or hear about strange or unexplained
events, book one of our Spooky Fort events today.
