Challenge your children to crack the codes and unravel the mysteries of Fort Nelson on Portsdown Hill this October half term.

The Royal Armouries’ Spies and Secret Agents event runs from Saturday 22 to Sunday, October 30.

Pick up a free Spies and Secret Agents activity trail for hours of code-cracking fun, plus, there’ll be a host of ghoulish ghosts hidden around the site for younger children to find as they explore on a Halloween trail.

As the days get shorter this historic Victorian fort, with its underground tunnels and secret chambers, is particularly atmospheric.
