  Peter the Packer's infamy is still remembered in the West of Ireland where in many cases, and particularly in the case of the Maamtreasna Murders his callous approach resulted in the hanging of innocent men.

  This photo from slightly to the left - i0.wp.com/limerickslife.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/ca... - shows the stack/chimney too. Is it fixed and part of a steam engine to power the bridge and/or locks? From this brief history of the cannon and Viscount Fitzgibbon - limerickslife.com/crimean-war/
