Geocache Description:

In 2010 Kilmore Cathedral was 150 years old. Kilmore means 'The Great Wood' in Gaelic. The Cathedral is dedicated to St. Feidhlimidh (FAY-LIM-EE).The former Cathedral dating from the 15th century is at the top of the hill and now serves as a Parochial Hall. The adjoining walls are part of the old Bishop's Palace and date from the 1600's. The most famous Bishop of Kilmore was William Bedell (served 1629-1642) who is buried in the cemetery close by.Opposite the Cathedral gates is a Norman motte and bailey constructed for Hugh de Lacy in the late 12th century.
The cache is a plastic container with screw lid covered in brown tape.

Additional Hints (Decrypt)

[Park at the Parochial Hall above the Cathedral. Stroll all the way along the restored wall of the old Bishop's Palace. Notice the capping stones in front of you. Could you reach and cap that?!]
