    Medieval tower house next to the 19th-century Belvelly Bridge, the only land connection between Fota Island and Great Island (Cobh). Strategic passage overlooking the tidal waters of Cork Harbour. Photogenic combination of castle, bridge and narrow channel.

    The castle in the background of the bridge was built by the Anglo-Norman Hodnett family who arrived in Ireland in the 12th century.

    During the reign of Henry III, the Hodnett and de Barry families had disputes over their property in Cork.
