Keadeen (Irish: Céidín) is a mountain of the Wicklow Mountains in western County Wicklow. Located near Donard and Baltinglass, it overlooks the Glen of Imaal to the north, Kiltegan to the south and Kilranelagh to the west. Dwyer McAllister's cottage is at the northern base of Keadeen at Derrynamuck, where Michael Dwyer, the 1798 rebellion United Irishmen leader, escaped from the British soldier's siege on Sam McAllister cottage in December 1799 up the slopes of the mountain.
