This used to have a sort of electrical effect upon him, for he would jump up and off he would go, not a word could be got out of him.

Rorke's Drift comprised two single-storey buildings approximately 30 metres (98 ft) apart: the western building was being used as a makeshift hospital and the eastern building had been converted into a storehouse.

Bromhead and the other uninjured survivors remained at Rorke's Drift for several weeks after the battle. Wary of another Zulu attack, the garrison constructed crude stone walls around the perimeter and named the fortification "Fort
