Saint Columbs Rill
Saint Columb's Rill is a tributary of the much more famous River Bush (an Bhuais in Irish) in Northern Ireland. This Rill or Rivulet is really a small stream that rises in bog land approximately five miles (eight kilometres) southeast of the village of Bushmills〔http://www.discoverireland.com/gb/ireland-places-to-go/placefinder/b/bushmills-antrim/''Bushmills Village, County Antrim''〕 in County Antrim. The Rill is named after the Patron Saint〔() Saint Columba, Patron Saint of Derry〕 of Derry〔Mills, A.D. (2003) ''Dictionary of British Place Names. ''Oxford University Press. ISBN 0-19-852758-6〕 (Doire in Irish).
