LEGENDS & LOCAVORES

Tall tales abound in South Armagh. Heard the one about the Cailleach Beara? A witch who turned Irish mythological hero Fionn Mac Cumhaill into a frail old man by tricking him into retrieving her ring from the Lake of Sorrows. Or the story about C S Lewis, author of The Chronicles of Narnia, who grew up in Belfast, holidayed nearby and wrote that landscapes in this part of Northern Ireland ‘under a particular light, made me feel that at any moment a giant might raise his head over the next ridge’? Or the tale of a local man who left as a little boy, made his fortune in Australia and returned to restore a castle in Killeavy?
