The sign reads: "A portion of the Fort Montgomery chain was origninally constructed to block the Richelieu River. It was carried far to the north only to return south when the American invasion of Canada failed in early 1776. The Americans considered using it at Fort Ticonderoga to block Lake Champlain, but chose instead to return it to the Hudson River to become part of the Fort Montgomery chain."
