Armoy Round Tower

"On the northern coast, within about four miles of Ballycastle and one of Kenbaan Head, stands the remains of the Round Tower of Armoy. About forty-four feet of this ancient structure is still in a tolerable good state of preservation. Although differing in some respects from the three other towers to be met with in the same county, Antrim, Trummery, and Ram's Island; still there is nothing in its structure to call for a more particular observation than we have made in speaking of the Round Towers of Donaghmore and Antrim, in preceding numbers of the Journal."

From The Dublin Penny Journal, Volume II., No.100, May 31st, 1834.
