"The Estill Springs, half a mile from Irvine, have been celebrated as
a watering place and have claim to historic interest that dates by
the days of early exploration of Kentucky. The view from the top of
Sweet Lick Knob, at the foot of which the white sulphur water gushed
out as clear as crystal, is one of the grandest and most romantic known.
A large spring house has covered the springs and offered a place of
recreation for people interested in obtaining the white sulphur water,
famous through the many years for it's health and coolness. Later a
large hotel was built, probably in the 1830's, and the area became a
well known resort which was visited many times by Henry Clay of Lexington,
Major Curtis F. Burnham of Richmond and many other notable Kentuckians,
as well as persons from other states.
