This and other views 'published by Wm. Robertson, Kilkenny', were drawn by two artists, early in the 19th century, employed by Wm. Robertson, architect, who intended to publish a topographical work. The plates with some descriptive letterpress were issued in 1851 by James George Robertson under the title 'Antiquities and scenery of the county of Kilkenny'.
