Description
Population (2006) Athenry (pronounced /æθənˈraɪ/[1]; Irish: Baile Ãtha an RÃ, pronounced [balʲɑËˈɾiË], transl. 'Fort of the King') is a town in County Galway, Ireland. It lies 25 kilometres (16 mi) east of Galway city, and one of the attractions of the town is its medieval castle. The town is also well-known by virtue of the song "The Fields of Athenry". Its name derives from the ford ('Ãth') crossing the river Clare just east of the settlement. Because three kingdoms met at that point, it was called 'Ãth na RÃogh', or 'the Ford of the Kings'. On some medieval maps of English origin the town is called Kingstown. The kingdoms were Hy-Many to the north-east, east and south-east; Aidhne to the south and south-west; Maigh Seola to the west and north-west.
History
The earliest remaining building in the town is Athenry Castle which was built sometime before 1240 by Meyler de Bermingham. In 1241, the Dominican Abbey was founded, a major institution before being sacked by Cromwellians. The Medieval walls around Athenry are among the most complete and best preserved in Ireland and still retain a number of the original towers as well as the original North gate. The remains of the Lorro Gate were partially unearthed in 2007 during redevelopment road works in the area. In the centre of the town is the square; it is here that Athenry's late 15th century Market Cross is located. The monument which is of Tabernacle or Lantern type is the only one of its kind in Ireland and the only medieval cross still standing in situ in the country. A Heritage centre now occupies the remains of the mid 13th century St Mary's Collegiate Church immediately North of the Square. The original church is now largely destroyed but an 1828 Church of Ireland church was built into its chancel in 1828. Moyode Castle is another tall sixteenth-century fortified tower house of the Dolphin family, which went to the Persse family. The castle is now restored and inhabited and is located 3.5 miles from the town of Athenry.
