Rower-Inistioge GAA has been regularly flooded over the years, often causing extensive damage but on a sunny day it's one of the most beautiful grounds in the country.

Nestled along the banks of the Nore, the Inistioge pitch lies so close to the river that you could get shouldered into it over the sideline. The home of Kilkenny legend Eddie Keher is nothing like we've seen before.

They must lose so many balls to the river...

There are some spectacular GAA grounds around the country but on a warm summer evening you will be hard pressed to find a better view than Inistioge in Kilkenny. #summer #gaa @JOEdotie @SportsJOEdotie @RTEsport @KilkennyCLG @officialgaa @Rower_Inistioge @kclr96fm @KKPeopleSport pic.twitter.com/Y2MKvhYMe1
