About Fenagh
Fenagh is a small rural village and parish in south County Leitrim, set between Ballinamore and the surrounding lakes, farmland and drumlin countryside. It has a peaceful, close-knit character, with traditional homes, agricultural land and a strong connection to local community and parish life. Everyday shopping and a wider choice of services are generally found in nearby Ballinamore, while Fenagh itself is known for its historic abbey site and village amenities. Families have access to local primary education, with secondary schooling and larger retail options available in Ballinamore and other nearby towns. The area is car-dependent, although regional bus services connect the wider locality and the N41 routing area to neighbouring towns; rail travel is available from Carrick-on-Shannon for longer journeys. Residents can enjoy the surrounding lakes, quiet roads and countryside for walking, fishing and cycling, while Ballinamore provides pubs, cafés, restaurants, sports facilities and community services. Fenagh’s principal landmark is Fenagh Abbey, a historic ecclesiastical site beside the village, and the area retains a distinctly rural Leitrim pace of life.
