Millmount Fort
Millmount Fort is a fortified complex on a large artificial mound on the south bank of the River Boyne in Drogheda, County Louth, Ireland. The site developed from a Norman motte into a stone fortification with an early 19th‑century round tower and attendant barracks; it is today a museum and national monument.

As it stood in 1815
The shape it held in its prime.
A massive cylindrical stone tower (the local 'Cup and Saucer') sits atop a steep grassy mound, its drum-shaped walls of grey ashlar with small rectangular loopholes and a high, narrow entrance door. A low curved curtain wall and stone ramparts ring the mound; flagpoles rise from the ramparts. The tower is capped by a small pointed glazed cupola. The complex includes courtyard barrack buildings of coursed stone at the mound's slope and a broad grassy approach from the town.
