    “Mt. Garret Castle is situated near New Ross.”

    Share Share Post
    Mt. Garret Castle is situated near New Ross. It is now a ruin but it is still strong and in good repair. Bishop Barret owned it and lived in it. He had a special gate to go into Ross. The field in which the castle is situated is not to be ploughed because it is said that gold is hidden there. There is a well near the castle since the time of Bishop Barret and it is called the "Castle Well". The people still get water from it.
