Temple Views

from £25.00
Size:

Mussenden Temple is a striking circular building perched on the cliffs of County Londonderry, Northern Ireland, near the ruins of Downhill House. Built in 1785 by Frederick Augustus Hervey, the Earl of Bristol, it was inspired by Rome’s Temple of Vesta and originally served as a library. The temple offers breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and Downhill Beach below, with its precarious position on the edge of the cliffs adding to its dramatic appeal. Over time, coastal erosion has brought the temple dangerously close to the edge, but it remains a captivating and iconic landmark, blending history with natural beauty.
