Kells ~ Market Street ~ Co Meath…..2807

Kells Co Meath derives from the Irish Ceanannas Mór, meaning ‘great residence`. Long before the coming of Christianity, Kells was a royal residence associated with the legendary Conn Céadchatach (Conn of the Hundred Battles) and Cormac mac Airt. In 550 St. Columba, also known as St. Colmcille, established a religious settlement at Kells. The most famous treasure created by the community of St. Columba is the Book of Kells
