Flag Tower, Ford Castle
The 14th-century Flag Tower (formerly known as the Cow Tower as cattle were kept on the ground floor and allowed to defecate on to the unfortunate occupants of the oubliette dungeon below) is now let as self-catering accommodation.

The tower is here seen through the 18th-century gateway.
