Punchestown Description
3mi/5km southeast of Naas we come to Punchestown. Near the racecourse, on the Woolpack Road (the medieval road from Dublin to Kilkenny), stands the Long Stone of Punchestown (National Monument), a huge tapering granite monolith 23ft/7m high. When it was re-erected after collapsing in 1931 a Bronze Age burial place was discovered at the foot of the stone.
