MARTELLO TOWER ON MAGILLIGAN POINT in Doaghs Lower — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Doaghs Lower is an area in County Derry where people farmed, fished and built towers during the nineteenth century. The area is not a single named place on a modern map, but it is the kind of coastal locality where British and Irish life mixed under military rule. Some buildings still stand, some have vanished, and the sea has taken others. What remains is a boundary marker, a tower base or a field name that preserves the shape of doaghs lower.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as MARTELLO TOWER ON MAGILLIGAN POINT. Recorded period: C19TH. Recorded protection: State Care. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
