Everything about Dromiskin totally explained

Dromiskin (Irish: Droim Ineasclainn which roughly means "the hill at the spring of the water") is a village in County Louth, Ireland. It is situated 10km south of Dundalk, about 1km inland from the Irish Sea coast, and is located in one of Louth's most historical areas.

History

The village was has home to a monastery for hundreds of years, once visited by Saint Patrick. This site for the monastery was picked as it's a local high point; it's also where a round tower was built and still remains. From the tower there's a view of all of Dundalk Bay and the surrounding countryside. Dromiskin was also served as the home to the Archbishops of Armagh for a time.
   The village is part of the Darver and Dromiskin parish, Darver being a neighbouring village. The parish is bounded by the Fane River on the north and by the Glyde River on the south.

Demographics

Since the mid-1990s, Dromiskin, like many areas in County Louth, have seen marked increase in population. In 2006, about 2,500 people were living in the Dromiskin area.

Sport

Its local Gaelic Football club St. Joseph's won the Joe Ward Cup in 2006. The club is now playing Intermediate football. There is also an athletics (track and field) club (St. Peter's AC) based in the village.
