County Longford - Towns

The village of Newtowncashel has the unique distinction of having won both the National Tidy Towns Competition and the Nationwide CARE Award in 1980. Among its special features are stone walls built with artistry and the well kept Garda Station, Church, National School and Hertiage Centre. Recent highlights include a number of fine outdoor sculptures by bog-wood sculptor Michael Casey, which create a unique atomosphere in the village. There is an excellent view of the village, with the restored Abbey of Saints Island to the left, and Barley Harbour on the right. Elfeet Bay near Newtowncashel provides a pleasant amenity for walking, boating, picnicking and fishing along the Lough Ree shoreline.
