Sweets in Enniskillen: Portora Royal School, Cole's Monument

Enniskillen's population is around 14,000, built across an island between the two halves of Lough Erne — a setting that's produced one genuinely famous literary connection.

Portora Royal School, and Oscar Wilde

Portora Royal School was founded by royal charter in 1608, one of the oldest schools in Ireland. Oscar Wilde was a pupil there before winning a scholarship to Trinity College Dublin — though his name was painted over the school's honours board in 1895 following his imprisonment, and only reinstated later. Wilde is said to have taken inspiration for The Happy Prince from the view of Cole's Monument from the school grounds.

An Island Town on Lough Erne

Enniskillen's town centre sits on an island between the upper and lower halves of Lough Erne, with Enniskillen Castle guarding the crossing. It's a proper history town — just not one built around a bulk sweet supplier.
