What is recorded here
Isolde's Tower stands in Dublin South City beside the ghost of a public latrine recorded in 1305. The toilet served the neighbourhood until closure in 1558, doing its dirty work for two centuries while the tower watched.
Clarke (2002, 28) mentions the former existence of a public latrine W of Isolde's Tower in 1305 (Simpson 1994, 21). This was closed by 1558.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
