From 2021 to 2022, the Droichead Arts Centre, Drogheda Port and Meath County Arts Office collaborated with the project to offer five artists the site of Mornington, County Meath. Mornington is home to three lights (the North, West and East lights) along with the additional architecture of: Lady’s Finger, the Maiden’s Tower and the ancient beacons where fires were originally lit before the presence of lighthouses.

The course was first played in the 1880s but the club was not formally in the existence until 1909. The course has produced some of Ireland's best golfers, notably Ryder Cup golfers - Des Smyth and Philip Walton. Top class amateurs include Declan Brannigan and John McGinn. In 2004, the Leinster open Seniors Competition was hosted here.
