  1. A Tower

    Share Share Post
    There is an old round tower in Killbannon beside the old Church. It was used for the safety of the priests. When the soldiers came the priests would go up the ladder with the Vestments, Chalices, and Holy Communions and they would pull up the ladder after them.
