- World Within Walls collection: Watertowers at St. Davnet’s in Monaghan town
- Description
-
The water towers were an important part of the infrastructure of the campus, as they provided the water supply for bathing, laundry and cooking for the whole institution. These are built in sandstone, and were designed by the architect of the site, John McCurdy, who was based in Dublin. They were built during the first phase of construction from 1867-89. Images taken by Fiona Byrne during the World Within Walls project.
