Fethard is a small town in County Tipperary. It is located 16 km east of Cashel on the Clashawley River where the R692, R689 and R706 roads intersect.
The town was heavily fortified and completely surrounded by town walls as part of Edward I's policy of establishing fortified market towns. The town walls rise to a height of 7.6 m and can still be seen today. Most of the circuit survives, making Fethard the most complete medieval circuit in Ireland.
