Have you checked -

Solent Papers No.3 Fort Nelson and the Portsdown Forts

by Garry Mitchell

A4 format, card covers, 36 pages; with drawings, plans and colour 
photographs explaining the construction, purpose and history of the 
forts on Portsdown Hill. Including Forts Wallington, Nelson, 
Southwick, Widley, and Purbrook with its outworks at Farlington and 
Crookhorn.

ISBN 0 9513234 5 8 EAN 978-0-9513234-5-8

2010 edition : Price £4.00 Sterling

I've currently mislaid my copy but I'm pretty sure this has 
information on how far each defence progressed. It is from a very good 
series with plans of most of the works (I think they're available 
through Amazon now).

Sorry I can't give you a direct answer until I locate my copy!
