The Round Tower of Swords, Dublin, Ireland, from the east, 1924-1926. Ireland's distinctive round towers are thought to have been built between 800 and 1000, during the time when Ireland was subjected to repeated Viking invasions. They were built near churches and monasteries, and it is thought that they served as bell towers and possibly as places of refuge for the clergy and relics and treasures. A print from Hutchinson's Britain Beautiful, edited by Walter Hutchinson, volume II, Hutchinson and Co, 1924-1926.
