Moy, County Tyrone

Moy (from Irish an Maigh, meaning 'the plain') is a village and townland in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland about 5 miles (8 kilometres) southeast of Dungannon and beside the smaller village of Charlemont. Charlemont is on the east bank of the River Blackwater and Moy on the west; the two are joined by Charlemont Bridge. The river is also the boundary between County Tyrone and County Armagh. The 2021 census recorded a population of 1,941.

The houses lining the village square are mostly mid-18th century, though all four churches (Roman Catholic, Church of Ireland, Presbyterian and Methodist) are later.

Moy had town commissioners under the Lighting of Towns (Ireland) Act, 1828 from 1844 until about 1865.
