The take
An archaeological dig in a neighbourhood park turned up the remains of an old coastal fort. There's only a plaque and some brickwork to see, but it's worth the detour if you're already out east.
Good to know
Look for the excavated South-East Bastion, a piece of one of the oldest forts the British built
A pair of Sikh colonial guard statues stands in the park
The park is open 24 hours and is wheelchair accessible
