Mussenden Temple of the Winds by

Originally designed by Earl Biship Hervey as a library and dedicated to his cousin, Mrs Mussenden, it perches precariously on the edge of a cliiftop on the North coast of Ireland. It boasts fantastic views of Downhill beach and the coast of Donegal from its west window, Castlerock beach and Porstewart from its east window , whilst the north window looks out to sea.

    Just took another look at your work Les. This looks a fabulous place, a bit of an odd location for a library but. What a superb location.
