The summit of Ardagh Hill is adorned by this fine example of a Martello Tower. Constructed after an attempted invasion by the French Armada in 1798, there were originally four Martello Towers on the island. Only this one and the tower on Cloughland Hill remain.

It's super windy up here! But you have the best all-round view of the island.
