A blockhouse is a type of fortification typically made of wood or stone, and often used as a defensive structure. It usually consists of one or more rooms with loopholes or embrasures for musketry, and sometimes a raised platform for a cannon. Blockhouses were used during the 18th and 19th centuries, most notably in the American Revolutionary War and the American Civil War. The term 'blockhouse' comes from the Dutch word blokhuis, which means 'wooden house'.
