Athy is a picturesque heritage and market town situated at the
confluence of the Barrow river and the Grand Canal. The main town in
south Kildare, Athy is a place where peaceful waters, romantic stone
bridges and the 15th Century White's Castle create a historic and
relaxing atmosphere. The river and the canal are great locations for
coarse fishing, while canoeing and pleasure cruises are also popular.
The Barrow Navigation - a stretch of river running between Athy and
St Mullins - can be travelled for more than 40 miles. For golfers,
there are two courses in and around the town, and the beautiful
Kilkea Castle Golf Club is only a few miles away. And the great
racecourses of County Kildare, at Naas, Punchestown and The Curragh,
are all within half an hour's drive. The history of Athy is explained
at the Heritage Centre, housed in the imposing Palladian town hall,
which was built in 1840. The Centre also contains an exhibition about
the explorer Ernest Shackleton, who was born in nearby Kilkea.
White's Castle, a wonderful landmark, is now privately occupied. It
stands beside the 18th Century Crom-a-boo Bridge, imaginatively named
after the war cry of the Geraldine family.
