Freshford
Six miles (10 km) south-west of Bally-ragget, in a gap of the Slieveardagh Hills, is Freshford. A twelfth-century church was built here on the site of the original foundation by St Lachtain (died 622); though since rebuilt, a beautifully sculptured Hiberno-Romanesque doorway and porch remain.
