Scrabo Tower is easily one of the areas most recognisable landmarks, situated at the head of Strangford Lough overlooking the old Market Town of Newtownards Perched high above Newtownards on Scrabo Hill, this imposing edifice was built in 1857 as a memorial to the Third Marquis of Londonderry. The tower stands in Scrabo Country Park with Woodland walks and parkland. A climb of 122 steps will take visitors to the open viewing level which gives spectacular views across Strangford Lough, The Mourne Mountains, Belfast and beyond to Scotland. On a clear day the views from this monument are astounding.
