What is recorded here

Limestone wall, erected c.1842, along one side of street, having two openings with opposed flights of limestone steps allowing accessing to terrace at east side. Walling comprises snecked roughly dressed stone blocks with dressed stone string course and chamfered coping course, both continuing to encompass round-plan piers that terminate wall at each end. Concrete steps to south end of terrace. Recent information plaque to wall.
This structure, unique in County Tipperary, represents a fine example of public works. It was built by the Cashel Commissioners as part of town improvements, another instance being the similarly-constructed reservoir on Main Street.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
