Place fort Sé Funchal
Name recorded for two forts. In Funchal, a small, since destroyed fort stood on the inner Pontinha islet, which was linked to the shore c.1757–1762, and Blandy's first wooden quay stood near it. The Elucidário's own entry describes a fort on Porto Santo built on Pombal's orders, sold at auction in 1923 and now owned by the Porto Santo water company.
