Coonagh Neighbourhood Guide
Limerick
About Coonagh
Coonagh is a suburban and industrial area on Limerick’s north-western edge, close to the River Shannon and adjoining Clondrinagh, Clonmacken, Mungret and Clarina. It combines established housing with commercial and employment areas, so the character is practical and well connected rather than village-centred. Residents are within easy reach of Limerick city, with regular bus services along the northside corridors and straightforward road access via the N18 and N69. Local shopping is focused on nearby retail parks and neighbourhood services, while larger supermarkets, cafés and restaurants are available around the Coonagh Cross and Jetland areas. The immediate locality has fewer traditional pubs and restaurants than the city centre, although nearby Clondrinagh, Ballynanty and city districts provide plenty of options. Families can access primary and secondary schools across north and west Limerick, with further education and city-centre amenities a short commute away. Green space and riverside walks are available nearby, while Coonagh’s commercial setting provides convenient access to trade counters, vehicle services and everyday businesses. Sports clubs, community facilities and Limerick’s wider cultural, retail and healthcare services are all readily accessible by car or bus.
