This drawing is the only visual record of the tower at Bullock, County Dublin, Ireland, which has since vanished without a trace. This tower was probably part of the defence of the harbour at Bullock. The tower was described as being already "ruinous" in the year 1611. In the foreground of the drawing are cattle on either side of a road passing by the tower. There are people walking on the road.
