Granagh (Granny) Castle
Granagh (Granny) Castle, Kilkenny, on the
northern banks of the River Suir, west of Waterford Town, one of the
oldest Norman castles in Ireland.
Looking east down the River Suir towards
Waterford Town.
Quite a bit of the walls of the main
(originally) multi-storied building survives.
There are still a few signs of the
wonderfully rich decorated stonework that went into the building of the
castle.
Looking west up the River Suir towards
Carrick-on-Suir.
The new suspension road bridge over the River Suir
The new long cable-stayed bridge is a
magnificent and attractive construction that is part of the N25
Waterford bypass.
The new road bridge viewed from Granny Castle. It is 450m long and 100 m
high in the centre.
