Cole Monument: Enniskillen, Co Fermanagh

by | Feb 4, 2013 | Fermanagh, Monuments, Nature & Gardens

Cole’s Monument stands high on Fort hill within Forthill Park & can be seen from anywhere in the town below. It was built in honour of Sir Galbraith Cole, who was one of Wellington’s generals and the son of the first Earl of Enniskillen. Started in 1845, it took 12 years to complete. 180 spiral steps lead to a viewing platform with magnificent views of Enniskillen and the surrounding area.
