About

The Spire of Lloyd in Kells, Ireland, is a striking architectural landmark that stands out for its unique design and historical significance. Built in 1791, this lighthouse-like structure was commissioned by the first Earl of Bective, Thomas Taylour, as a memorial to his father. Situated on a hill, it offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. The spire's design, attributed to architect Henry Aaron Baker, incorporates elements of classical architecture and serves as a prominent feature in the landscape.
