Clooneen Neighbourhood Guide
Longford
About Clooneen
Clooneen is a small, predominantly rural locality in County Longford, within the N41 routing area and close to Drumlish, Newtownforbes, Dromod and Whitehall. The setting is quiet and dispersed, with countryside, farmland and local roads shaping everyday life rather than a conventional village centre. Residents generally rely on nearby towns and villages for primary and secondary schooling, larger shops, healthcare and a wider choice of cafés, pubs and services. Drumlish is a particularly useful nearby service centre, while Longford town provides more extensive shopping, employment, schools and leisure facilities. Dromod offers an important rail connection for journeys towards Dublin and the west, and road links through the surrounding villages support commuting by car. Community life is centred on local organisations, sporting activity and the Community Centre, with pubs and informal social venues in nearby settlements. The area suits those seeking a peaceful rural home while remaining within reach of Longford’s main amenities and the N4 corridor.
