Visit ÉIRE #80 Marker, Malin Head, Ireland
At Malin Head, the most northernly point on the island of Ireland, a signal station was constructed by the British Admiralty in 1805. The tower still exists on site, and is dominant in the landscape, but is in a ruinous state and access is closed. In addition to the signal tower, a later semaphore station sits close by, as does a Look Out Post (LOP) constructed in 1939 during the final period of occupation and operation of this site. As a final gem on this site, a large stone EIRE sign, along with the number 80 sits on the headland, a sign to indicate to aircraft making landfall that they are entering the neutral territory of Ireland.
