Carrickmacross News

Welcome

Carrickmacross.ie web site is an information resource for residents and visitors to Carrickmacross and the surrounding parishes of Donaghmoyne, Killanny, Magheracloone, Inniskeen, Raferagh and Corduff.

Carrickmacross is a busy market town, located centrally between Dundalk, Monaghan town, Cavan and Ardee. Carrickmacross was recently by-passed which has relieved the town from heavy traffic and has reduced the traveling time to Dublin Airport to a little over 1 hour via the M1.

If you are visiting Carrickmacross you are very welcome, we hope we can give you some information on things to do, places to stay and places worth a visit. If there is information you would like to see on the website or if you have news or events you would like us to include please email us on services@aura.ie.
