Lusk Heritage Centre
Georgina Campbell
Lusk Heritage Centre is made up of a 9th century round tower which stands 27 metres tall and contains 9 floors, a medieval belfry and a 19th century church and while they are all connected they were built over a period of almost a thousand years.
The belfry houses several medieval tombs including that of James Bermingham (1527) and the double-effigy tomb of Christopher Barnewall and his wife Marion Sharl (1589) and an exhibition on Lusk and medieval churches of North County Dublin.
