  10. Keeping vigil this morning at the Solstice sunrise at Knockroe Passage Tomb, Kilkenny. After a low cloud gave us a little bit of worry the sun finally broke through.

    Always a lovely way to mark the end of another year. 🌀

  16. A frosty Kylebeg Wood, just opposite the brewery, this morning.

    About eight years ago, we cut eight oak trees from this wood. Seven of them went to make whiskey casks that were then filled with Dair Ghaelach Midleton whiskey. The eighth was rejected, because the grain pattern was wrong, so we've sawn it up and used it to make the tables and bar counter in our visitor centre.

  17. The view from the top of the farm - the Kylebeg Wood in the middle, joining onto Coillte's Oughaval Wood. The hedge nearest the camera has been there since at least the 1500s, and the rath beside it is a lot older than that.

  23. 3/5 Kilkenny Two shots from Rothe House - A magnificent 17th century Irish merchant's townhouse & garden in the centre of Kilkenny on the medieval mile.

    Kilkenny has a real sense of history - a place where you can see just how it developed over centuries by just looking around.
