Ardmore is not alone home to this impressive complete Round Tower, but also this superb site has a Cathedral, an Oratory and two Ogham stones.
The round tower is just under 30 meters high and is thought to date back to the 12thCentury.
The four floored tower is made of sandstone and has a total of 7 windows, with the doorway just shy of four meters from ground level.
The cap of the tower is not the original - the replacement gives the tower looking like something that is about to take off from NASA.
St Declans Oratory (second last image on right) which gets its name from the 5thCentury saint is said to be the site of his grave.
The church which is said to be the oldest structure on the site was restored by the Bishop of Waterford Thomas Mills in 1716.
The Cathedral dated 12thCentury has on its west gable panels which depict some scenes from the bible.
Inside the cathedral you will find two Ogham stones located in sheltered spots protected from the elements.
Access - Because of the tower you will see this site well in advance.

The R673 will bring you right up to the tower.
