The Round Tower at the ancient monastic site of Clonmacnoise has been selected as Offaly s Favourite Building.
The selection follows voting by thousands of readers from an initial list of 50 buildings which was narrowed down to a shortlist of five and published in last week s Tribune.
The tower, known as O Rourke s Tower, forms part of an extensive site that includes the ruins of a cathedral, seven churches, two round towers, three high crosses and a large collection of Early Christian grave slabs.
Most of the churches have recently undergone comprehensive conservation works, mostly re-pointing, with the Nun s Church (about 1 km off site), currently under wraps while it too undergoes the same process.
