The smoke deflectors are very low down. I wonder how well they worked?

The obelix is a reminder of the Battle of the Boyne, the most important skirmish that has taken place on Irish soil. Today there is a visitor centre and people of all political persuasions are welcome to celebrate or mourn the results of this bloody event.

wasn't the obelix built before the battle????
Greg said:
The original obelisk, seen here, built as a monument to the battle, was later destroyed. There is a movement to build a new one: www.grandorangelodge.co.uk/press/PressReleases-2009/09052...

An exceptionally fine daguerreotype, and a handsome case.
