The Cat Stone - Uisneach Hill County Westmeath

The Hill of Uisneach is in County Westmeath, 15 miles outside Mullingar. The hill has been the center for Celtic Bealtime festivals with remains of fires from that time and long before. From the hill of Uisneach it is said that you can see 20 of the thirty two counties in Ireland (on a clear day!). It is known as the centre of Ireland and from here the island was divided into it's provinces. Located on the side of the hill is the Cat Stone said to resemble a cat. Legend says that the Mother Goddess Erui who gave her name to the island of Ireland (Eire) is buried underneath the cat stone.
