Same Parish - Different County

DownFanatic · November 13, 2008, 04:38:41 PM

Was on the Milford (Limerick) GAA club's website there. They have a map with every GAA club on Ireland on it. There seems to be a hell of a lot of clubs very close to each other but in different counties. Is there many clubs in Ireland that are in the same parish but in different counties? Somebody mentioned Trillick (Tyrone) and Coa (Fermanagh) to me. Id suspect Bredagh (Down) and St Malachy's (Antrim) are aswell.

Crossmaglen Rangers, Silverbridge Harps, Culloville Blues (all Armagh) and St Malachy's Shelagh (Louth) are all in the same parish I think.

Is there a club in the Louth bit. If not, it doesn't count!

There are a few clubs where the border is badly defined along the Monaghan/Armagh border, this is due to the border being re-drawn. So clubs tended to follow the political boundaries but the parochial boundaries can be different.

St Pat's lordship and dromintee are both in the same parish - dromintee - but in different provinces

My parish (Aghagallon) borders Armagh, Down and Antrim.

Not true for RC parishes. St Pats is in Lordship parish and Dromintee in Dromintee parish.
