    That a great image- you can't even see the rock from the main road now!

    Wendy: Well, if you hold on, I'm searching for a good shot of the rock to add too... :)

    It's on the north side of the rock. It doesn't seem to be marked on the OSI 25" - Presumably it's a branch coming down from Goold's Cross - maybe a line for sugar beet or a BNM line. I'm not sure where you got the station opened date from.

    The Scully Monument was built in 1867, and the top destroyed by lightning in 1976, leaving just a pillar:

    According to local mythology, the Rock of Cashel originated in the Devil's Bit, a mountain 20 miles (30 km) north of Cashel when St. Patrick banished Satan from a cave, resulting in the Rock's landing in Cashel.[1] Cashel is reputed to be the site of the conversion of the King of Munster by St. Patrick in the 5th century
