The committee looking after Brandon Hill Cross have confirmed that the landmark cross on Kilkenny's highest peak has been damaged due to disruptive weather conditions.

"Unfortunately the cross has been damaged due to the high winds this morning and has fallen," they said.

"Very sad to see the hill looking so empty.. We are working to try and get it sorted... more updates soon."

The cross on Brandon was erected by The Brandon Hill Cross committee in 1984.

Brandon Hill is Kilkenny's highest point and is 515m high.
