Cycling

On either side of the steps of The High Hill stand two large murals that literally look at each other: the rearing horse on one facade and the geometric deer on the other. Together they form a colorful gateway to the historic staircase zone that connects the upper and lower parts of New Ross. This place is a focal point within the Walls Project, where modern street art and the old street pattern of the city intersect.
