About Geevagh
Geevagh is a rural parish in south-east County Sligo, centred among open farmland, bogland and upland scenery between Drumkeeran, Riverstown and Ballyfarnon. It has a quiet, close-knit character, with scattered homes, small settlements and a strong connection to farming and the surrounding countryside rather than an urban village lifestyle. Local education is represented by Glen School and the Old School House, while families also look towards schools in nearby Drumkeeran, Riverstown and larger surrounding towns. There is no rail station in Geevagh, so daily travel is mainly by car, with regional roads linking the area towards Sligo, Carrick-on-Shannon, Boyle and Leitrim; local bus services are limited compared with larger settlements. Shopping is generally centred on nearby villages and towns, with everyday provisions, services and fuel available by travelling to places such as Riverstown, Drumkeeran or Carrick-on-Shannon. Social life is based around local pubs, community events and sporting organisations, with restaurants, cafés and broader retail choices found in the surrounding towns. Residents have access to attractive walking and outdoor opportunities around the Bricklieve Mountains, Lough Arrow and the wider Sligo-Leitrim lakelands, while the region’s archaeological and rural landmarks add to its distinctive setting. Geevagh suits people seeking space, countryside and community ties, provided they are comfortable with longer car journeys for work, shopping, secondary education and larger leisure facilities.
