Episode 171 - Mythic Places - Loughcrew - The Cailleach

Welcome back to the Candlelit Tales Podcast, and back to this Series.
In this series, we’re taking a look at some of the most iconic locations in Ireland, and the stories and myths attached to them.
In this episode, we are climbing the hill, and then turning and climbing again, up to the cairns at Loughcrew. Dropped by the Cailleach as she leapt from hilltop to hilltop, gathering power to her. But who was the Cailleach?

I love your podcast! Thank you for recording these stories as it's almost impossible to figure out the correct pronunciations for mythological figures and places without help... also they are lovely performances, I love getting drawn in to the old magical worlds with these dramatic narrations. Request: can you do some episodes with Mannanan Mac Lir?

[@CandlelitTales]

Definitely! We love Mananan Mac Lir!
