Beskrivelse

Lantern slide depicting the Carlingford Mint in Co. Louth. Originally titled 'CARLINGFORD: Mint Leask' and labelled 'L5 53'. This monumnet is thought to have gotten its name from having a licence to mint coinage, and dates back to c. 1467. he limestone structure includes a battlemented wallwalk, with small holes in the battlements for muskets. A doorway onto the street is protected by a machicolation at roof level. There is some debate over whether the building was actually used as a mint or as a private home for a wealthy citizen. The monument also contains five decorative limestone windows. This monumnet is located in the centre of Carlingford.
