7 In 1657, the Mamo family built Mamo Tower at Tar-Rumi, on the road leading to Zejtun. Its not as big and as strong as St Thomas Bay but it's of average size and is built on a plan of St Andrew's Cross. It has a Small Dry ditch around it and it also used to have a draw-bridge. In the vicinity the same family also built St Gaetan Church. On the inside, it has a big circular room in the centre, from which access is possible to three lateral smaller rooms, one on each of the crosses arms, while a flight of stairs leads to the roof from the fourth arm.
