- The Butts Green
In olden times this place was the "Middle of Kilkenny" because all the old roadways led straight to it. At present it is only a mere sketch of the former Green. It was in this square that the military practised archery. It was from the word "targets" or "butts" that it got it's name. The people of Kilkenny were also assembled here for meetings or to practise archery if necessary.
