Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Summer Cove: Charles Fort Charles Fort is a star fort overlooking Kinsale harbour, built to protect Kinsale from marauding French and Spanish fleets in the 17th century. It was built in the 1670s and 1680s, and was named after King Charles II. It remained in use as a British Army barracks until the end of British rule in southern Ireland, before being abandoned after it was partially destroyed by the retreating anti-Treaty forces during the Irish Civil War in 1922. This is a view from 1991 taken from the massive gun turret in the south-east corner, and from a very similar viewpoint to Peter's 250203 from 2006. |
