Gweedore

Gweedore (officially known by its Irish language name, , (:ˌɡˠi ˈd̪ˠoːɾʲ))〔(Placenames (Ceantair Ghaeltachta) Order 2004 ) p154 (of 155)〕 is an Irish-speaking parish located on the Atlantic coast of County Donegal, Ireland. Gweedore stretches some 16 miles from Meenaclady〔''Mín an Chladaigh'' in Irish; where anglicised placenames are used in this article, see #Place names in Gweedore for their official Irish names〕 in the north to Crolly in the south and around 9 miles from Dunlewey in the east to Magheraclogher in the west, and is one of Europe's most densely populated rural areas.〔http://www.donegaldirect.ie/ws_town_details.aspx?Town=Gweedore+(Gaoth+Dobhair)〕〔http://www.goireland.com/donegal/gweedore.htm〕 It is the largest Irish-speaking parish in Ireland with a population of around 4,065,〔http://travel.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/travel/destinations/ireland/article2544786.ece A Lost Weekend in Donegal〕 and is also the home of the northwest regional studios of the Irish-language radio service RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta,〔 〕 as well as an external campus of National University of Ireland, Galway.〔http://www.donegalcottageholidays.com/towns/holiday-cottage-kincasslagh.php〕 Gweedore includes the villages Bunbeg, Derrybeg, Dunlewey, Crolly and Brinalack,〔(Logainmneacha Ghaoth Dobhair, Tír Chonaill, Éire )〕 and sits in the shade of Donegal's highest peak, Errigal.〔(Gweedore and Mount Errigal )〕
Gweedore is known for being a cradle of Irish culture,〔http://www.gweedore.net/?p=57〕 with old Irish customs, traditional music, theatre, Gaelic games and the Irish language playing a central and pivotal role in the lives of the local people. This, along with its scenery and many beaches, has made the area a popular tourist destination, especially with visitors from Northern Ireland.〔http://www.irishabroad.com/Travel/Features/gweedore.asp〕 Gweedore and the neighbouring districts of Cloughaneely and the Rosses are collectively known locally as "the three parishes", they form a social and cultural region distinct from the rest of the county, with Gweedore serving as the main centre for socialising and industry.〔http://www.donegaldemocrat.ie/news/cloughaneely_1_1986720〕
==Etymology==
Gweedore is the anglicisation of the original and official Irish name ''Gaoth Dobhair''. ''Gaoth'' refers to an inlet of the sea at the mouth of the Crolly River, known as ''An Ghaoth''. It is the boundary between Gweedore to the north and The Rosses to the south. ''Dobhar'' is an old Irish word for water. Therefore, ''Gaoth Dobhair'' translates as "the aqueous estuary".〔(Logainmneacha Ghaoth Dobhair )〕
The name ''Gweedore'' or ''Gaoth Dobhair'' refers to the Catholic parish of the same name, not to any one village or town. The villages of Bunbeg, Derrybeg, Dunlewey and others are collectively known as ''Gweedore''. Locals consider themselves to be from ''Gweedore'', only citing Derrybeg, Bunbeg etc. as mere postal addresses.〔(www.real-ireland.com )〕
