This is quite a short round tower really, or perhaps it just seems that way because it is quite wide at the base.
The door is 4m from the ground on the east side and it still retains its cap - complete with little cross.
Unusually, it has raised string courses around it denoting the floor levels.
This whole area of Waterford is stunningly beautiful and watching the sun go down here was a real treat.

Just before midday I realised that I was close to Ardmore and I was getting hungry. What better place in this area to sit and eat my sandwiches than outside the churchyard looking at the tower, the church and beyond them to the beach.
It really is very peaceful here, despite the large numbers of people that went past the churchyard, either walking or in cars. There was one complete idiot who drove past in a blue van with his stereo on way too loud and broke the magic of this place for a moment or two, though.
