2023 Co. Kilkenny - Saint Canice's Cathedral (1285)

            and Round Tower

St Canice’s Cathedral in the Irishtown area of Kilkenny is an impressive structure that dates back to 1285.
There is a reference that suggests a mid-9th century date for the Round Tower, making it the oldest standing structure in the City. 
Considering that it was built over fairly fresh burials and that the foundations are remarkably shallow, it is not so much the 0.7m (2ft) off-plumb that is remarkable, but the fact that it has remained standing at all! St. Canice's Cathedral
