It was a block-house surrounded by a stockade, and had additional barracks on the outside for the recruits on their way to Fort Augusta. It was generally under the command of Captain Thomas McKee and Captain James Patterson, of Lt. Colonel William Clapham's Augusta Regiment, being the only defense in this list not directly under Colonel Conrad Weiser's command. It occupied an important position and was used until the termination of all hostilities in 1764.
