It is situated on a cape at a point where the South-Bay and the outlet of Lake George join, forming a narrow river running into Lake Champlain. This passage can be controlled from the fort itself, and still better from a redoubt situated nearer the water. There are barracks for 600-800 men in the fort, built of quarry-stone, which is much found here. On the west side towards the portage to Lake George on a hill are the old French lines made of earth, which protest very well the nar row passage ...on land from Lage George, as was shown on July 8th, 1758, when Gen. Abercrombie made an attack with 16000 men on 4000 Frenchmen and Canadians, who were defending these lines and withstood and repulsed the English. According to the first design of this fort, these fortifications were only put up to withstand an attack from Lake George. The north side of the fort was unprotected. The rebels had been in possession of the fort since May I7th, 1775, when they took it under Colonels Allen and Easton. The Royal Army pursued the fleeing rebels by land and water as far as Skenesborough and Hubertson.
