# Fort Charlotte, Antigua and Barbuda

Fort Charlotte was a historic military fort on the island of Antigua, built in 1745 and later expanded. It was located at the entrance to English Harbour in Saint Paul parish. Originally called South East Point Battery and renamed Horseshoe Battery, the fort was finally renamed in honour of Queen Charlotte. The remains of the fort are part of Nelson's Dockyard National Park and part of the Antigua Naval Dockyard and Related Archaeological Sites UNESCO World Heritage Site.

## History

Construction of the modern Naval Dockyard in English Harbour began in the 1740s. During that time, Fort Berkeley was significantly expanded and upgraded, as it guarded the western entrance to English Harbour.
In 1745, a new battery was built across from Fort Berkeley, to guard the eastern entrance to English Harbour. Originally, the fort was called South East Point Battery, and consisted of two gun platforms, a guard house, a kitchen, and latrines. It was armed with 11 cannons. By 1755, the battery had been significantly upgraded and was renamed the Horseshoe Battery.
In 1781, Thomas Shirley, recently appointed Governor of the Leeward Islands, urged the local government to fortify the area around and above English Harbour to better protect the Naval Dockyard. As part of this defense upgrade, a larger gun platform was built above Horseshoe Battery, to function as a signal or communication station. Upon this expansion, the fort was renamed Fort Charlotte in honor of Queen Charlotte.
Fort Charlotte had an iron chain that was strung across the harbour's entrance from Fort Berkeley. The chain could be raised to prevent vessels from entering the harbour.
By the 1840s, the fort had been decommissioned. In 1843, an earthquake destroyed the majority of Fort Charlotte's structures. As a result, little remains of the fort's lower section, and only the gun platform and foundations of the guard house remain of the fort's upper section.
In 1984, the remains of Fort Charlotte became part of Nelson's Dockyard National Park. In 2016, the grounds became part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as UNESCO recognized the English Harbour dockyard and the surrounding military archaeological sites together as The Antigua Naval Dockyard and Related Archaeological Sites. The fort is accessible via a short nature trail called Carpenter Rock Trail.

Eventually Barlow & Seelig was renamed Speed Queen Company, and was later purchased by McGraw-Edison. In 1979, McGraw-Edison sold its appliance division to Raytheon Company.

### Formation

In February 1998, private equity firm Bain Capital agreed to acquire the commercial laundry business from Raytheon for $358 million. And as a result, Alliance Laundry Systems was formed.

# Scarlet Feather

Scarlet Feather is a 2000 novel by the Irish author Maeve Binchy. It was the winner of the 2001 WH Smith Literary Award for Fiction.

## Plot

The novel follows the fortunes of Cathy Scarlet and her college friend, Tom Feather, who set up a catering business together (the 'Scarlet Feather' of the title). The two are close, but not romantically involved - Cathy is married to Neil Mitchell, the son of the wealthy household where her mother Lizzie used to scrub floors, and Tom is in a relationship with beautiful Marcella, who dreams of being a model. Neil's mother Hannah, against the marriage of her son to the cleaner's daughter, makes life hard for Cathy, while Marcella's ambitions come between her and Tom. There is also a growing distance between Cathy and Neil due to the pressures of Neil's high-profile law career, and Cathy's realisation that her husband sees the business as a hobby.
A key subplot is the arrival of Neil's twin nephew and niece Simon and Maud, whose alcoholic mother and errant father have virtually abandoned them. With Hannah unwilling to allow the children to stay with her and her husband, they are unofficially adopted by Cathy's parents, Lizzie and Muttie, who live in St. Jarlath's Crescent in a far less affluent part of town, but show the children real love for the first time. The twins' older brother Walter reappears in their lives periodically, usually causing trouble, including robbing and vandalizing the Scarlet Feather premises. When the insurance company suspects an inside job, Cathy and Tom are potentially ruined. The pair's battle for survival, and its impact on their respective relationships, is the key theme for the second half of the novel.

## Awards

Scarlet Feather won the 2001 WH Smith Literary Award for Fiction.
