House – medieval, Gardens, Co. Kilkenny

In County Kilkenny, a medieval house once stood within a formal garden enclosure, a combination that is rarer in the Irish archaeological record than either element alone.

Medieval domestic structures in Ireland were typically built of timber or earth and have left little above ground, which makes any identified example with associated garden remains a notable survival, even if what endures is largely earthwork or foundation trace rather than standing masonry.
