Fort George Photos - April 2014

Ken Glanister visited Bermuda in April 2014, and took these pictures.  Ken worked at Fort George from 1961 to 1965.  There is absolutely no light in these room - it is pitch black!

The Filing Room.

A big stack of reports on the wooden box, and more reports in cardboard boxes on the shelves behind.

There are 2 galvonometers on the top shelf - the 'spindle-like' things.  They were a very vital part on the seismometers.

More of the same!!  Who would read all these things?

The 3 seismometers, still connected and ready to run?   Not likely!
These things needed constant maintenance and 'tweaking'.
