Poyntzpass has a square of sorts. Old photos show the centre of the village heaving with cattle on market day.
It also has a couple of interesting mini roundabouts

What happened the marsh between Lough Neagh and Carlingford Lough ?

Do you mean Páirc Esler?

lol.

The Glyn bog has significantly dried up over the past 300-400 years. It still exists, with a lot of meadow land which is prone to flooding.

Monaghan Town has The Diamond , Church Square , Old Cross Square and a bit of a triangle type of a square at the Market House
There’s a magic roundabout just down the road from the Market house on Park Street too , beside the wee chapel.
