Exploring Navan Town in IRELAND

Exploring Navan Town in IRELAND
Pierce Brosnan from Black Adam Hometown.

Navan (/ˈnævən/ NAV-ən; Irish: An Uaimh [ənˠ ˈuəvʲ], meaning the Cave) is the county town of County Meath, Republic of Ireland. In 2016, it had a population of 30,173, making it the tenth largest settlement in the Republic of Ireland. Navan is at the confluence of the River Boyne and Blackwater, around 50 km north west of Dublin. Its name is a palindrome.

According to local folklore a Souterrain was discovered near the Navan Viaduct in 1848. The location of its entrance has since been lost.

Another folk tale involves the ghost of Francis Ledwidge. According to the story an old friend of Ludwidge was working at the Meath Chronicle, the local news printer, when he heard the sound of Ledwidge's motorcycle outside. His friend was confused as he believed Ledwidge was fighting on the Western Front, upon going out to greet him the friend found that Ledwidge had disappeared. The story claims that this ghostly apparition appeared at the same moment he died.

In the Fenian cycle of Irish mythology, Fionn mac Cumhaill studied under the druid Finegas along the river Boyne. He is believed to have caught the Salmon of Knowledge in what is now Navan.

Laytown County Meath Ireland

This week I have a walk around Laytown in County Meath Ireland
Laytown is 50 km (30 mi) north of the nation's capital, Dublin. Laytown and neighbouring village, Bettystown, sit on one of Ireland's most scenic beachfronts. The beach stretches from Mornington at the River Boyne, which borders County Louth to Gormanston at the River Delvin, which borders County Dublin.

Laytown sits on the mouth of the River Nanny, a tidal estuary where mullet, trout, eels, gobies and flounder can be caught - but no salmon. According to local folklore, Saint Patrick banished all the salmon from the river. By an old schoolhouse overlooking the river there is a spring known as St Patrick's Well, though the access path to it is overgrown.

Laytown, County Meath, Ireland on a grey October day.

Short video I took on the grassy overlook at Laytown beach, in Co Meath, Ireland.

Even when the clouds are overcast, and the winds blow cold, Laytown beach still is such a serene place to visit. Standing at the promenade, you can see miles in every direction, and when the tide is in, the crashing waves are so relaxing for me.

It feels so incredibly easy to get pictures and videos of such an epic landscape in Laytown, and it always surprises me how more people don't take advantage of this beautiful scenery. The locals have done a genuinely brilliant job providing places for people to do up a picnic and enjoy a quiet snack.

Laytown & Gormonston beach, Co Meath, Ireland, at low tide. The mouth of the Nanny River run dry.

Short video I took on the grassy overlook at Laytown beach, in Co Meath, Ireland.

With the tide so low, you'd almost be able to walk the few miles all the way from Morningtown beach right to the end of Gormonston beach (although the River Nanny still had a stream somewhat blocking the path).

It feels so incredibly easy to get pictures and videos of such an epic landscape in Laytown, and it always surprises me how more people don't take advantage of this beautiful scenery. Even on an overcast day, the sun and clouds reflect off the water so perfectly. Granted, you can't hear the waves too easily from up here, but the wind blowing over the sands more than makes up for that.

EXPLORING KELLS TOWN in IRELAND

EXPLORING KELLS TOWN in County Meath - IRELAND

Kells (/ˈkɛlz/; Irish: Ceanannas) is a town in County Meath, Ireland. The town lies off the M3 motorway, 16 km (10 mi) from Navan and 65 km (40 mi) from Dublin. It is best known as the site of Kells Abbey, from which the Book of Kells takes its name.

The settlement was originally known by the Irish name Ceannanas or Ceannanus, and it is suggested that the name 'Kells' developed from this. From the 12th century onward, the settlement was referred to in English and Anglo-Norman as Kenenus, Kenelles, Kenles, Kenlis, Kellis and finally Kells. It has also been suggested that Kenlis and Kells come from an alternative Irish name, Ceann Lios, meaning [the] head fort. Kells, Kenlis and Headfort all feature in the titles taken by the Taylor family.

In 1929, Ceannanus Mór was made the town's official name in both Irish and English. Following the creation of the Irish Free State, a number of towns were renamed likewise. Ceanannas has been the official Irish-language form of the place name since 1969. In 1993, Kells was re-adopted as the town's official name in English
