In October 1670 the Kandyan forces attacked and captured the fort taking the Dutch garrison, who were stationed there at the time of the battle, prisoners. In order to facilitate the release of the prisoners the Dutch closed the ports at Batticaloa, Kottiar and Kalpitiya.[2] There are no visible remains of the fort.[3] References1. ^{{cite web | url=http://amazinglanka.com/wp/arandora/ | title=Arandora Fort | accessdate=18 November 2014}} 2. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.voc-sri-lanka.nl/VOC-SRI-LANKA.NL/Bin._Arandora_Accuras_Hakmana.html | title=Arandora – Accuras – Hakmana | publisher=VOC Sri Lanka | accessdate=18 November 2014}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.ceylontoday.lk/64-34505-news-detail-colonial-forts-relics-of-old-time-warfare.html |title=Colonial Forts – relics of old time warfare |publisher=Ceylon Today |accessdate=18 November 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150923224304/http://www.ceylontoday.lk/64-34505-news-detail-colonial-forts-relics-of-old-time-warfare.html |archivedate=23 September 2015 }}
