Thurles Sceitse

Holycross Abbey
The amazing windows of Holycross abbey

Even a portion of the True Cross, whether or not you believe in that sort of thing, its beautiful medieval metalwork

Ballynahow castle, one of the few round tower houses in Ireland

A perfectly preserved flagstone floor inside

It was an amazingly intact castle with loads of great features like this mural stairs

One of the two Tower houses in Thurles

Thurles Cathedral, very Italian looking!



The impressive Kilcooley Abbey

The font in Kilcooley Abbey

The intricately detailed Butler Grave

 On Sunday I went sketch exploring around Thurles with sketch group Sceitse (http://sceitse.blogspot.ie/) for a day of great sites and lots of sketching!
