6mi/10km southwest of Kilkenny on the N76 is Callan, a busy little market town which was strongly fortified in medieval times and has preserved a number of old buildings. Of the 15th C. Augustinian priory (National Monument) only the church, a long rectangular building with a central tower, survives; fine carved choir stalls.
