Took a spin yesterday and came across this Martello Tower in surprisingly good order. It's a Corsican design that was built as a precaution for Napoleon finished in 1817 but wasn't required. With a few more windows I think it would be a perfect house. #martellotower #fortification #architecture #corsican #magilliganpoint #loughswilly

After the establishment of the Irish Free State the Royal Navy continued to maintain its presence at Spike Island in Cork Harbour as one of as one of three Treaty ports retained by the British. The other two treaty ports were Berehaven in County Cork and Lough Swilly in County Donegal. Spike Island remained under British sovereignty until 11 July 1938 when it was returned to Ireland.
