    Tips

    February 3, 2023

    This house on the fiver was once used for fishing by monks. There was a hole in the bottom through which the net was lowered. When enough fish were caught, a bell tied to the net with a string rang and the cook came down from the monastery to collect the fish.

    The bridge also gives access to the grounds of Ashford Castle.
