St. Begnet’s Church, Dalkey Island
Description Saint Begnet’s Church is a National Monument in state care (SMR DU023-029003-), located on the northern end of Dalkey Island, Dublin Bay. Constructed probably during the 10th century from coursed granite masonry and large boulders. Above the doorway in the west gable a single bellcote is located where in the early 20th century a granite cross was inserted. The church was also partially altered in the early 19th century to accommodate the workmen who were building the Martello tower and battery on the island. The site was recorded using a combination of terrestrial and UAV SfM photogrammetry and terrestrial laser scanning (Trimble TX8 laser scanner, Phantom 4 RTK UAV, Canon EOS 6D II camera, Canon EF 24mm f/2.8 lens, Reality Capture) Location Other Models
