LOCATION


Corrigeenroe, in which the Key West development is located, is a scenic rural area 2.5 miles from the N4 and a further 2.5 miles from Boyle town. St. Teresa's four-teacher, 82-pupil National School and St. Teresa's Catholic Church lie between Key West and a new Corrigeenroe village.


Corrigeenroe has long been a favoured area in which to live because of its proximity to Boyle, the N4 National Primary, Lough Key, Doon Shore, motor cruiser moorings, a number of excellent restaurants, Carrick-on-Shannon and Boyle Golf Clubs, Kilronan Castle, Boyle's new Community College and the many attractions of the area.

Key West is located in Corrigeenroe, a peaceful friendly village nestled between the Bricklieve Mountains and Lough Key in North Roscommon.


The beauty of the area is celebrated in song and verse. With the bustling towns of Sligo, Boyle and Carrick-on-Shannon only 20 minutes away, with large employers such as Abbott 1,000 staff and MBNA 1,200 staff.


Community spirit and friendliness is woven into the fabric of the community. The local schools are renowned for their educational achievements and have excellent facilities for soccer and Gaelic football. The O'Carolan Harp and traditional music festivals are very popular. A hill walking festival with free and unhindered access to the mountains takes place annually. Mayfly angling is famous and nearby Lough Arrow is synonymous with the clean spring fed waters that make this possible. Cruising and water sports at Lough Key and Lough Scion cater for all the needs of the water enthusiasts. The area is has numerous high quality golf courses. There are horse riding stables offering tuition and trekking.


Arigna Mining Museum offers a fascinating insight into a unique way of life and the Cavan and Leitrim railway is restored to its glory days of steam for the locals and tourists alike.


Lough Key Forest Park with its large combination of quiet walks, wildlife, and beautiful scenery has drawn admirers from all walks of life. The 800 acres, which make up the park, were formally part of the Rockingham Estate. There are boats for hire and trips around the lake. Just some of the places to find and visit are The Wishing Chair, The Ice House, Drummans Bridge and The Tunnel.

LOCAL PLACES OF INTEREST:


Ballintubber Castle - situated southeast of Castlerea and built in the 13th century, this castle was home to the O'Conor clan. Though fell into disrepair at the beginning of the 18th century, the remaining ruins are substantial and are laid out in quadrangular form, with polygonal towers at the angles. It is believed to be the earliest example of an Irish stone castle.


Castlestrange Stone - situated in the Castlestrange demesne between Fuerty and Athleague, lies an Iron Age boulder known as the Castlestrange Stone. Covered with Celtic style ornament, this boulder has been dated to 250 BC and is one of only four such boulders in the country.


County Heritage Centre - situated near Stroketown, the County Heritage Centre contains an interpretative display on pre-Christian Ireland as well as supplying information regarding the monuments of Rathcroghan and the Táin Bo Chaille.
Dominican Priory - the impressive priory ruins is one of Roscommon Town's main landmarks. Founded in 1253 by Féilim O' Conchir, King of Connaught, a late 13th century effigy of the founder has been placed on a 15th century tomb decorated with eight mail-clad warriors.


Donamon Castle - located beyond Fuerty, this is one of the oldest inhabited buildings in Ireland. Though the oldest part of the building dates from the 1400's, it has undergone much change over the years and is now under the ownership of the Divine Word Missionaries.


Roscommon Castle - standing dramatically on a hillside outside Roscommon Town, the ruins of this fortification built in 1268 are indeed an impressive sight. The castle fell into ruin following the Cromwellian invasion of 1652 and today's ruins are of solid square layout, with rounded bastions at the corners and a double-towered entrance gate.
Roscommon County Museum - adjacent to the Old Jail in Roscommon Town, visitors can examine such varied exhibits as a sheela-na-gig from Rahora, a dugout canoe and a replica of the Cross of Cong.


Strokestown Park House - lying just north of Roscommon, this is a beautifully restored 18th century mansion. The stables of the house have been converted into a famine museum and among the many exhibits are letters written by former tennants of the time.
