Fort George was an extension to the fortified walls of Bombay (now Mumbai) built in 1769; it was in the present-day Fort area, to the east of the site of the former Dongri Fort . The hill on which the Dongri fort stood was razed, and in its place Fort George was built. In 1862, the fort was demolished.
History
[ edit ]
The fort was 1 mile (1.6 km ) long and about one-third mile (500 m ) wide. Its length ran from NNE to SSW, and it was named in honour of George III of the United Kingdom .
