Round Tower

Archaeological place

What is recorded here

The Round Tower at Kinneigh is the only surviving Irish round tower with a hexagonal base, a shape that breaks the usual circular rule and suggests its builders experimented with form as much as function. That single geometric choice makes the tower a rare outlier among hundreds of bell houses, inviting wonder about the craftsman who measured six angles instead of one.
Round Tower is recorded as a archaeological place in County Antrim. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
