Carrickfergus town from the castle as drawn in a map of 1560 and almost as it is today. Dobbins Inn conceals a tower house behind its current façade. I have imagined what this might look like if the battlements, window openings and roof pitch of the 1560’s remained on this building. I have also re-erected the 1560's market cross in the square. It would certainly help encourage tourists to cross the Marine Highway and explore this very historic town.
