I love Clondalkin

The Round Tower at Clondalkin was built by monks as a defence against Viking pirates more than a thousand years ago.

You would'nt guess from the image above that a busy road runs between the graveyard wall and the tower.

Every day hundreds of people pass but I wonder if they appreciate this monument in their midst.
