Kilcloon (, "Woodland of the meadow") is a parish situated in the south-east of County Meath in Ireland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.dioceseofmeath.ie/parishes/index.html )〕 The parish is composed of the six medieval parishes of Moyglare, Kilclone, Balfeighan, Rodanstown, Ballymaglassan and Rathregan. The medieval parish of Kilclone was in turn made up of the townlands of Kilclone, Pagestown, Mulhussey, Milltown, Longtown, Jenkinstown, Collistown, Barstown, and Kimmin’s Mill. The townland of Kilclone is modernly known as Kilcloon also. The Central Statistics Office also defines Kilcloon as a census town with a population of 264 at the Census of 2011.〔(CSO Census Site )〕 ==Amenities== The parish contains the parish church, a national school, a school for autistic children, a post office, a branch of the Irish Credit Union and a pub. The patron of the parish church is Oliver Plunkett, bishop and martyr, and was the first church dedicated to his memory. A sculpture of Oliver Plunkett is featured in the Kilcloon Millennium Garden. A site has been acquired in the parish for the proposed community centre but more funding is needed before building can commence. The local GAA grounds are home to the Blackhall Gaels football, hurling and camogie club. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kilcloon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
