Part of Shirley Heights has a series of ruins formerly known as the Blockhouse. One of the building that make up the Blockhouse buildings was the Officer's Quarters. Amidst the rubble of most of the rest of this structure there are a few arches that still stand tall to give an idea of what a portion of the facade looked like in the late 1700's.
Laurie leans against one of the walls where another arch remains. These were certain to be some amazing buildings in their time.
Contrary to not looking overly excited in the photo we really did have a good evening at Shirley Heights. You can see English Harbor speckled with yatchs in the background.
Sunday nights at Shirley are known for crowds of tourists, plenty of food & drink and a steel drum band to start the evening off. They play for a couple of hours and then the party shifts to a more high-tech band for everyone to dance to and have a good time. Yes - we did just that!
