Together with three nearby pillboxes and the Pak Fa Shan Operation Base (Ta Kwu Ling Division), MacIntosh Fort (Pak Fu Shan) formed part of the border defence system.

For the post at Ngau Yiu, windows secured by original locks are retained. For the other posts, they have been altered and have replacement aluminium windows. There are only minor deviations among the MacIntosh Forts. The main difference is the shape of the flat roof. A circular shape is adopted in the one at Ngau Yiu instead of octagonal shapes.

It was said that Sir David Wilson, the Governor of Hong Kong (1987-1992), visited the post and met the Field Patrol Detachment in 1991.
There used to be a shrine inside the post where Kwan Tai was worshipped. The deterioration of MacIntosh Fort (Ma Cho Lung) is more serious than the others.
