A descendant of Brian Merriman, the author of A Midnight Court, and one of Clare’s celebrated poets, John Lloyd is remembered for his remarkable literary contributions, including his visionary poem, Cois Leasa Dhom Go h-Uaigneach (Close By The Solitary Rath). This work, set to the melody of the once-popular St. Patrick’s Day in the Morning, was inspired by a unique and poignant experience. One night, Lloyd found himself lost and disoriented, ultimately spending the night sleeping rough near a ring fort on Cnoc Thaidhg (Thady’s Hill, located near what is now Shannon Airport). The encounter left an indelible mark, inspiring the creation of this evocative poem.

In addition to his original works, Lloyd undertook notable translation efforts, rendering into English several significant texts. Among these was MacCruitin’s biography of Saint Senan of Scattery Island, a revered figure in Irish history. This translation was later transcribed by Anthony O’Brien, ensuring its preservation and accessibility to a broader audience.
