St. Ciaran's Well, Castlekeeran, Kells
St. Ciaran's Well, Castlekeeran, Kells
St. Ciaran's Well, Kells, celebrated for its sacred trout. This drawing is from 'Traces of the Elder Faiths of Ireland, a folklore sketch, a handbook of Irish Pre-Christian Traditions with numerous illustrations in two volumes' by W. G. Wood-Martin , M.R.I.A., 1902. "The little stream, shown in the illustration, comes from the well, which is always bright and sparkling, and, remarks Mr. W.F. Wakeman, "Certainly, at times, contains lusty trout, whether 'enchanted' or otherwise I cannot say. Some of these fish I have seen myself, and Sir William Wilde saw them also."
