The Churchyard Wall

Kells Heritage Trail

This wall marks the boundary of the original monastery and was rebuilt in 1714. When part of the wall collapsed after heavy rains in 1997, it was discovered to have no foundation. It was rebuilt again in 1998, this time with reinforced bulwarks.

Marker is at the intersection of Cannon Street (Road 163) and Suffolk Street, on the right when traveling west on Cannon Street.
