The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage has partnered with Kilkenny County Council to create Wonder Wander Walking Trails.  The Wonder Wander Walking Trails have been developed in collaboration with the local communities.  In addition to well-known public buildings, each trail shines a light on some of the lesser known architectural details and the stories that are associated with these unique places.

The Wonder Wander Walking Trail for Freshford takes in two types of waterpump, one retaining its pail stand, one operated by a wheel, as well as a house where Charles Stewart Parnell (1846-91) addressed the townspeople as part of his campaign for Home Rule (1890).  A medieval font in the grounds of the Catholic church will have you standing on your head!
