The International Tennis Hall Of Fame & Museum, located in Newport, honors players and contributors to the sport of tennis and includes a museum and grass tennis courts, along with indoor & outdoor regular courts. It was established in 1954 and the first members were inducted in 1955. The museum houses a vast collection of artifacts and memorabilia highlighting the history of tennis from its origins up through the modern era and is well worth a visit. This box dedicated to the Hall is located at Green End Fort, built by the British in 1777 as the eastern terminus of their Newport defense lines.
