conversion to modern apartments by Fort Gilkicker Developments Ltd, and work began on site with the erection of a fence, however these plans were again dropped in 2018 due to financial issues, and the fort was put on sale again in November 2019 with a guide price of 5 to 5.5 million pounds. On 28 July 2022, it was sold to developers for £1.38 million, with plans to turn it into 26 homes - 22 in the former gun emplacements and 4 larger ones in the barrack block. It is a Grade II* Listed Building and on the Buildings at Risk Register, but is currently in extremely poor condition due to a lack of maintenance and numerous break-ins. An urban explorer took a series of photographs of the interior in 2016, demonstrating the scale of the damage. The site suffered a major fire in March 2019.
