05-Feb-09 ... Black Ball Point

Beara Peninsula, Co. Cork view map

Napoleonic Signal Tower - built around 1806 to keep watch on the coast for any sign of the French during the Napoleonic Wars.
At any sign of an invading ship, signals would be passed to the next tower and so on back to the commanding station. The next tower on the coast should be visible in each direction.
