Longford
About Drumlish
Drumlish is a small, welcoming village in north County Longford, set in a largely rural landscape between Longford town, Ballinalee and Aughnacliffe. It has a strong community feel, with local services and social life centred on the village and surrounding townlands rather than a large urban shopping district. Day-to-day living is peaceful and family-oriented, while Longford town provides a wider choice of supermarkets, shops, healthcare, schools and employment services within a straightforward drive. Nearby education includes St Teresa’s National School in Killoe, with further primary and secondary options available in Longford and surrounding villages. Road travel is the main transport option: the R198 and regional roads connect Drumlish with Longford, Ballinalee, Mohill and the wider north Longford area, while Longford railway station offers onward train services towards Dublin and Sligo. Local pubs, cafés and community facilities provide convenient places to meet, and residents can also use Longford’s restaurants, leisure facilities, library and retail parks. The surrounding countryside is well suited to walking, cycling and GAA activities, with Lough Gowna, Newcastle Wood and attractions around Longford and Mohill available for occasional outings.
