New Bag to help us bag this years Tidy Towns

The Cats Out of the Bag… well at least on it!
Yesterday saw the launch of the County Councils and KKB new initiative to get more people involved in keeping their own areas clean. The black and amber bags are the perfect size for minor litter on approach roads, or if you can just walking or on the bike.
Why not join those who are helping keep Kilkenny as beautiful as it should be.
Phone/text 086 2514041 for any queries.

Black Abbey Quarter of Kilkenny.

The Black Abbey church founded in 1225  is the focal point of Black Abbey square and the Abbey street area.  Adjacent are elements of the medieval Kilkenny City walls and the Black Freren Gate,  which is the sole remaining Kilkenny City gate still in place.  There are wonderful walks through  the medieval streets and lanes in this historic quarter of Kilkenny City.
