Kells Priory
Situated a few miles from Butler Court and Kilkenny City, the astonishing ruins of the priory date back to 1193. Kells Priory is one of Ireland's largest and most impressive medieval sites. It sits like a perfect scale model of a medieval walled city, surrounded by green fields and flanked by the the King's River. Two miles south from here stands the impressive Kilree Round Tower and High Cross, which is well worth a visit. Photo by James Burke
