}}Calliaghstown Well, also called St. Columbkille's Well, is a holy well and National Monument located in County Meath, Ireland.[1]

Location

Calliaghstown Well is located beside a road just off the R150, {{Convert|4.5|km|abbr=on}} south of Drogheda and the River Boyne and {{Convert| 5|km|abbr=on}} west of Julianstown.[2]

History and description

The well was a traditional site of pilgrimage for locals, and a pattern took place there each year on June 9. A statue, erected perhaps in the mid-18th century, is called St Colm Cille, although with a mantle and crown it does not resemble traditional depictions of Columba/Colm Cille, who is usually depicted in a monk's habit (although he was of a royal family).[3]

The statue is {{Convert|1|m|abbr=on}} tall and composed of oolitic limestone, similar to Bath stone.
