Description by the author

Discover one of Ireland’s finest historic houses and learn about the story of Celbridge’s associations with Arthur Guinness, Jonathan Swift, William Conolly, and Henry Grattan as you take a self guided tour.

Join the Celbridge Heritage Trail and stroll through history, from early Christian Tea Lane, resting place of the Grattans; to Speaker Connollys Castletown, Irelands finest Georgian residence; then onwards to historic Celbridge Village, by the tranquil riverside trail or the stately tree-lined avenue. Just beyond lies Celbridge Abbey, home of Swifts Vanessa.
