I was rather intrigued by the unusual design too. A bit of Googling revealed that it's a standard product, known as "Celtic", from the Cavanagh foundry in Co Offaly, who specialise in what they call "road furniture". It's now part of the EJ company from the US.
Looks a bit like something we have, copy from norrøn time . Norse Mythology ? I hope you will find the answer to it. A very nice find. Thanks for sharing.
Fancy! I like it. There is a town in Ontario called Letterkenny and also a hilarious tv show called Letterkenny. Hilarious to Canadians at least. I am positive it is nothing like your Letterkenny.
I took a picture of one just like it towards the eastern end of Ballincollig, Co. Cork, today, and was going to try and find some information on it too. Aren't they just lovely though!
Lot of celtic ornaments in this cover. Nice that it is possible to make something humble so nice.

ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful to see on a drain cover, it is art on the street!

ReplyDeleteHow elaborate for a drain cover but very unique and so much better than the mundane!

Very fancy. Our drain covers have numbers scrawled on them ... they are certainly nothing like this. This could be in a drain cover museum!
ReplyDeleteI would love to know the meaning of it. : )
ReplyDeleteThere has to be a story there Bill! Well spotted, pays to look down too sometimes 😀
ReplyDeleteI like its design!
