FORT NONSENSE, NW. on Washington St. from Park Pl. to Court St., W. to end of road, 0.5 m., occupies the northeastern end of a high ridge that projects into Morristown. This small earthen work has been reconstructed by the National Park Service. It was originally built in 1777 by Washington's orders for the defense of military supplies stored in Morristown. In later years this purpose was forgotten and people, coming to feel that the fort had never been of value, dubbed it Fort Nonsense.
