Geocache Description:

This part of the park originally belonged to the lands around the house named St.Catherine's Park - The original priory house was built in the 13th century on each side of a small stream, which descended into the River Liffey. That house went through many changes & was burned to the ground and a new house – also called Saint Catherine’s Park – was built around 1798 to a design of Francis Johnston (also the architect of the GPO on O’Connell Street and Nelsons Pillar).

It was lived in by a succession of generals in the 19th century, and is now Leixlip Manor & Gardens.
This is a more mature area of the park - used for football matches and training.
Nice planting and benches are provided.

Information regarding the park and waypoint for the main car park and the entry point are available on cache page : GC4AHJK 01 - St.Catherine's. Nearest car park waypoints are on each page.

The caches are numbered to assist a cacher planning a route to nab them all. The route will start and end at the main car park.

They can of course be picked off individually.
