The Battle of the Boyne Site from the air

A view of the site of the Battle of the Boyne and the Oldbridge Estate just outside Drogheda, in County Meath, taken by drone. The video shows the river Boyne and the banks upon which King James II and King William of Orange fought in July of 1690. Also shown is Oldbridge House and Estate, which is now a major visitor attraction with its beautiful lands for walks, picnics and other activities. Finally, we get an overhead view of the 'Obelisk Bridge', which is an old bridge that crosses the Boyne at the site of an ancient ford.
