Cistercian Abbey, Jerpoint, Co Kilkenny
Photograph by Roger Stalley. View of north arcade of nave from the south-east showing chamfered arches resting on scallop capitals and alternating square and cylindrical piers on low perpyn walls. The west gable has three round headed windows with a smaller single light over the central window. The round headed clerestory windows are located over the piers as is common in Irish Cistercian houses.
