The Gaeltacht is the name given to parts of
Ireland where Irish (or Gaelic) can still be
heard as an everyday community language.
The ethos of the Gaeltacht is distinct and
different-because of the living language and,
in the Gaeltacht areas, Ireland's rich Celtic
Heritage and Culture can be experienced in a
very different way...
This tiny inland Gaeltacht is only 30 miles
from Dublin and has the distinction of being
created in 1935 by Gaeltacht farming families
who were transferred to more fertile lands in
County Meath by the Irish government.
