In a story in the Times of Malta, Fort Delimara, a Maltese heritage site, is in danger of collapse. A breakwater built to protect a nearby port directed waves crashing against the fort, which is built into chalk cliffs. Fort Delimara was a British fort built between 1876 and 1888 and still contains what may be the worlds last 4 remaining Victorian 38 ton rifled muzzle loading guns. The Maltese government cites lack of funds to help.
