Description

Limestone kerbstones, laid c.1780.

Appraisal

These tooled limestone kerbstones are a notable addition to the streetscape. Limestone kerbs and pavings are increasingly threatened by concrete replacement throughout Ireland. These kerbstones follow the sweep of the curved walls at the entrance to Saint Columba's Church (Kells) and contribute to the setting of the gates and church.
