Parmi les bâtiments à l'intérieur d'un fort, on trouve parfois un blockhaus (blockhouse), qui peut aussi être un fortin. Nos blockhaus (le mot est invariable) ont généralement à l'étage un mâchicoulis (machicolation, parfois machicolated gallery), galerie en surplomb qui fait le tour du bâtiment et dont le plancher est percé de meurtrières (loophole). 2, record 2, French, - blockhaus
