from the town, the house's significance in the growth of the community is attested to by the primary entrance to
Woodstock, the river gate, the lower avenue and lodge, and the almshouses on the square. By the end of the 19th century, there was a concentration of buildings with a large number of two and three storey structures due to the interaction of the steep hill and the earlier medieval walled village design. In the centre of the village square there is a fountain which Lady Louisa Tighe (1803-1900), who spent seventy-five years at Woodstock, erected in memory of her late husband. The base of a cross, erected in 1621 to the memory of Baron David Fitzgerald and his wife, is nearby. The cross itself went missing and is said to have been deliberately destroyed by the Yeoman in 1798. The fountain still stands today, and it is inscribed “Erected by Louisa M. Tighe in memory of her beloved husband A.D. 1879”.

Augustinian Priory. The priors expanded the community, but Inistioge suffered once the monasteries were dissolved in 1540. In 1566, Sir Edmond Butler was given ownership of the priory's possessions.
