Description

Depicting the round tower located in Peel castle. The 50ft (16m) round tower stands at the highest point of St Patrick’s Isle. This tower is of the type seen at monastic sites in Ireland, where the towers tend to taper towards the top, unlike Peel’s which has vertical sides. Though its top is battlemented, it once had a conical roof, like those in Ireland. The Tower would have acted as a belfry, as a lookout place and as a place of refuge.
