Residents of Dublin Ireland are very familiar with the Martello Tower in Dalkey (picture to follow), but here is a picture of another Martello Tower – this one in St. John New Brunswick.

That reminded me of James Joyce and the Martello Tower in “Ulysees”. Apparently, it’s now a museum; https://joycetower.ie/our-stories/welcome/
