    Now known as the Morspoort (Marsh Gate). Fortunately not demolished.
  • Hylda said:
    Built in 1668 as one of the original 10 old city gates of Leiden city, the Morspoort, or Marsh Gate, is only one of 2 that exist today. It still looks identical to this print, but the fence to the right no longer stands. Nowadays, traffic - except pedestrians and bicyclists - is directed around the gate. The Morspoort used to be called Gallows Gate since its road lead the the gallow field but it was renamed shortly after to Morspoort because of the nearby marshes. There are still 2 roads called Galgewater (Gallow's water) on each side of a canal. View also www.360cities.net/image/morspoort-leiden-the-netherlands

    It really does make it look as though the city ends there. It's very different today. goo.gl/maps/z9B3kNGDCB12

    From the Church of Ireland wiki - "...The tower houses six bells, three of which are Ireland's oldest bells, dating from 1423. The bells were rung for the Angelus and after the Reformation continued to be rung every morning and evening to call the people to and from their work. Due to the fragile state of the tower they were not rung between 1898 and 1983 [ie at the time of this photo]. After the tower was strengthened the bells were retuned in 1983. One of them, the tenor, was recast in memory of Alexander E. Donovan (1908-1982), who was closely connected with the church. They are now rung every week.... "
