Church Mountain, sometimes called Slievegad (Irish: Sliabh an Chodaigh, meaning "mountain of the covenant"), is the most westerly of the Wicklow Mountains in Ireland. At the summit are the remains of a large cairn and an old triangulation pillar. Just east of the N81 national route, it lies roughly halfway between Hollywood to the north and Donard to the south.
Famous quotes containing the words church and/or mountain:
“Having grown up in shade of Church and State
Breathing the air of drawing-rooms and scent ...”

“The moon was waiting for her chill effect.
I looked at nine: the swarm was turned to rock
In every lifelike posture of the swarm,
Transfixed on mountain slopes almost erect.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
