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.
