Little Sugar Loaf, also called Giltspur Mountain (Irish: Giolspar, earlier name Beannach Bheag), is a hill in County Wicklow, Ireland. It is situated East-North-East of the Great Sugar Loaf, separated from it by the N11 dual carriageway. The northern side of Little Sugar Loaf directly overlooks the town of Bray; the eastern side (see photo) looks across the R761 between Bray and Greystones to the western slope of Bray Head.
It is readily identifiable by its distinctive rocky double 'summit' which contrasts with the hilltops in the area which, apart from Bray Head, are very regular in appearance. It is the 913th highest summit in Ireland.
Famous quotes containing the words sugar and/or loaf:
“The sugar maple is remarkable for its clean ankle. The groves of these trees looked like vast forest sheds, their branches stopping short at a uniform height, four or five feet from the ground, like eaves, as if they had been trimmed by art, so that you could look under and through the whole grove with its leafy canopy, as under a tent whose curtain is raised.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“While they were eating, Jesus took a loaf of bread, and after blessing it he broke it, gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, and after giving thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you...”
—Bible: New Testament, Matthew 26:26,27.
