Inscription: Historical Site Defenses of Washington 1861-1865 Fort Ethan Allen

The embankments which still remain were the south face less the west bastion; an interior bombproof shelter for protection against artillery fire from Hall’s Hill; The magazine and guard house near the north face; and part of the east face.
