Glendalough's Round Tower and Graveyard from http://www.intangibility.com/Photography/Travel/Ireland99/Day3/IrelandDay3.html
Historical note from Dad:
Glendalough (Irish: Gleann Dá Loch, meaning Glen of Two Lakes) is a ruined village containing a former monastery located in County Wicklow, Ireland. It was founded in the 6th century by Saint Kevin, a hermit priest, and destroyed in 1398 by English troops.
The monastery and its round tower are today one of the most popular tourist attractions in the county.
