Mullagh, County Cavan
Mullagh (/ˈmʊlæ/; Irish: An Mullach, meaning 'the hilltop') is a town, civil parish and townland in County Cavan, Ireland. As of the 2022 census, the town's population was 1,651. It lies in the south-east of the county, at the junction of the R191 and the R194 regional roads near the towns of Virginia and Bailieborough.
The town has a heritage centre dedicated to St Kilian, who was born in Mullagh c. 640 and was martyred in Würzburg in Franconia in northern Bavaria, Germany, in c. 689. The centre also has an exhibition related to ogham script and the development of illuminated manuscripts.
The Catholic church, a Victorian neo-Gothic structure located 400 m from the village on the Virginia Road (R194), is named in memory of its patron, Saint Kilian. It was built in the late 1850s. Ruins of an earlier church, known as Teampeall Ceallaigh, remain in what is now part of the Church of Ireland grounds located approximately 600 m along the same road.
Mullagh's population increased substantially between the 2006 and 2022 census. The 2006 census recorded 679 residents, rising to 1,651 by the time of the 2022 census.
There was substantial housing and industrial development in the environs of the village in this period.[citation needed] Mullagh's relative proximity to the new M3 motorway has made Dublin more accessible to Mullagh and County Cavan.[original research?]
Local amenities include Mullagh Lake and Hill Walk (2 kilometers outside the village on the Virginia Road), a tennis court and park on Mullagh Fair Green, and a children's playground beside the St. Kilian's Heritage Center. The Edwin Carolan Memorial Park has a full-size GAA pitch (open to all sports), a 440-metre track around its perimeter and a multi-purpose sports centre and gym. In the winter, the track is floodlit at night-time to facilitate walking and running.[citation needed]
Local community organisations include a men's and ladies' Gaelic Athletic Association (GAA) club (Cúchulainns GFC), a community games (athletics) club, a drama society, a golf society, friendship club, parent and toddler group, Girl Guides and Boy Scouts.
Local committees include the Mullagh Tourism & Community Development Committee, Mullagh Tidy Towns, and St. Kilian's Housing Association.[citation needed]
