Other places of fascinating
interest not far from the Rath
Cairn and Baile Ghib Gaeltacht
are Trim Castle, Bective Abbey,
the heritage town of Kells and
the Ledwidge Cottage Museum
near Slane. This was the home
of famous Meath Poet Francis
Ledwidge who was killed in
the first World War.
A burst of sudden wings at

Faint voices in a dreamy noon,
Evenings of mist and
murmurings,
And nights with rainbows on
the moon...
