Williamstown Martello Tower No. 15 (Kerrigan 1995, 170). According to Kerrigan (1995, 168) construction of the Dublin area Martello Towers and their batteries commenced in 1804 under the supervision of Colonel Benjamin Fisher of the Royal Engineers and by December 1805 all towers were armed and complete. Kerrigan (ibid., 170) recorded that; ‘The towers and batteries south of Dublin are numbered from 1 to 16, but there were only fourteen towers, as at two locations there were batteries only, while several of the towers were close to adjacent batteries’. Situated on a E facing slope with views of the coastline N of Blackrock, now a park bordering on the railway line. Built of dressed granite, the tower is free-standing. Doorway is in the south. There are no traces of a machicolation which may have defended it. The upper parapet is carried on a double corbel. There are two openings in this on the west side above a blocked-up tall narrow opening which was probably the original entrance. Described by Kerrigan (1995, 174) as; 'the unusual tower no. 15 at Williamstown, the parapet supported on two courses of quadrant-shaped corbels. The tower is larger than usual, having a diameter of about 44 feet'.
