Irish Photography : Galesquarter Church and Castle, Co. Laois – Gallery

Galesquarter Church, Co. Laois
Irish Landscape Photography : Nigel Borrington

The Old Castle and church at Galesquarter, Co. Laois was home to the Lords of Upper Ossary the Gaelic Fitzpatrick family (Irish: Mac Gìolla Phádraig) .

The two buildings has stood empty since the 1700’s and today are very much in ruins yet go to make a wonderful site in the Local Landscape.

The Gallery below was taken last weekend on a walk through Galesquarter ending in the Bunlacken hills above.
