It was the original headquarters of the British garrison in Newfoundland. A second fort, known as Fort George was situated at the east end of the harbour connected by a subterranean passage with Fort William.

Still without naval or military defences, the English merchants of St. John's did what they could for their own defence. After the Dutch attack Christopher Martin, a <a href="/wiki/Devon" title="Devon">Devon</a> merchant captain, built and maintained defensive batteries, King William’s Fort, at the entrance to the harbour at his own expense.
