Locations: Malin Head

Visitors should not miss Banba’s Crown, Malin Head. It is not just Ireland’s most northerly point, but an area of great scenic beauty and of historical, scientific and ecological importance. The circuit of the Head will take you past the Radio Station, built in 1910. Here a tall derelict building known locally as “The Tower” was built by British Admiralty in 1805 to defend against a possible French invasion during the Napoleonic wars. It was used later as a Lloyds Signal Station. During the Second World War, the small huts were built and used by our defence forces to keep a lookout and protect our neutrality. It is a perfect starting point for a ramble along the cliffs to Hell’s Hole, a remarkable subterranean cavern 250 feet long and 8 feet wide. Nearby is a picturesque natural arch which is known as Devil’s Bridge.
