Underneath, the words 'Ar Aghaidh' can be found, which means 'Forward'.

Description

Population (2006) Castlebar (Irish: Caisleán an Bharraigh, meaning "Barry's Castle") is the county town of, and at the centre of, County Mayo in Ireland. It is Mayo's largest town. A campus of Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology and the Country Life section of the National Museum of Ireland are two important local amenities. The town is connected by railway to Dublin and the neighbouring Mayo towns of Westport and Ballina. The town has several small satellite villages around it, such as Breaffy. The main route by road is the N5. Its economy is primarily service-based. The population at the 2006 census was 11,891 (including environs).[1]

GAA

The local Gaelic football and hurling team is the Castlebar Mitchels club; a club with a proud and illustrious past, including 27 Mayo senior football championships and one Mayo senior hurling championship titles.[citation needed] After a couple of years in the doldrums, the club regained its place amongst Mayo's elite senior football clubs in 2005. The club boasts a very strong youth football structure. McHale Park in Castlebar is one of the major Gaelic Athletic Association grounds in Connacht, with a capacity of 36,000. The Mayo County board has recently submitted a planning application to increase the capacity to 90,000, which includes a whole new stand to replace the existing one (with dressing rooms and offices underneath), and adding fifteen extra rows of seating to the 'Albany' end. Further development will also lead to knocking down the press area on the McHale road side, and replacing it with a modern press area and TV stand. Construction is well underway and it is believed it will be ready for the first League game on the 1st February 2009, and fully complete for the Championship in June. Other nearby GAA clubs include Breaffy GAA, Parke GAA and Ballyvary Hurling Club.

History

The modern town grew up as a settlement around the de Barry castle, which was built by a Norman adventurer in 1235 and was later the site of an English garrison. The castle was located at the end of Castle Street, where the town river is thought to have originally flowed. A military barracks operates in the town to this day; armed conflict has been the centrepiece of the town's historical heritage. French forces under the command of General Humbert aided in a rout of the English garrison in the town during the failed Irish Rebellion of 1798, which was so comprehensive it would later be known as "The Races of Castlebar". A short-lived provisional Republic of Connaught was declared following the victory and John Moore, head of the Mayo United Irishmen and the brother of a local landowner, was declared its president. His remains are today interred in a corner of the town green, known as the Mall, previously the cricket grounds of Lord Lucan, whose family (the Binghams) have owned and still own large tracts of the town and county. The town received its charter from King James I in 1613, and is today governed by an urban district council, a subdivision of Mayo County Council. The Lake in Castlebar is also known as Lough Lannagh. The Irish National Land League was founded by Michael Davitt, of Straide in County Mayo, at the Imperial Hotel in Castlebar on 21 October, 1879.

Other sports

There is an 18-hole golf club in the town, as well as active basketball, tennis and other clubs. The council provides an indoor heated swimming pool and there are numerous gyms.

Castlebar is a garrison market town; there was a tradition of open air markets mostly selling livestock, which meant there was a healthy daytime drinking trade in Castlebar, but this has disappeared. For a combination of factors since the introduction of the smoking ban and the EU single payment grant to farmers, most public houses offer food to help subsidize the drop in alcohol sales. The only nightclub in Castlebar is Mantra,which is one of the most expensive nightclubs in Ireland ,is located on New Antrim Street and owned by The Welcome Inn Hotel. proposals for a second nightclub in the Town were rejected by the owners of the Welcome Inn claiming it would lead to a loss of revenue, There are also a few late bars located in the town. The most famous (and one of the oldest pubs in Castlebar) is John McHale's pub, located on New Line. The pub is known for its sale of a Meejum of Guinness, which is slightly less than a pint.

Retail

Castlebar is traditionally a market town, and it is still a major destination for shoppers from all over the west of Ireland. It boasts an increasing number of national and international chain stores, and several new shopping areas have been developed in the past 10–12 years on what were considered the outskirts of the town. The modern shopping precinct along Hopkins Road is now the commercial heart of the town, surpassing Main Street. Stores include Tesco, Dunnes Stores, Aldi, Next and Homebase, as well as smaller names such as McLoughlins Bookshop. Castlebar is the second largest retail centre in Connacht, after Galway city. It comes in ahead of Sligo, despite that town's greater population. A survey by consultants Experian showed that €284 million is spent in by shoppers in Castlebar every year. The Irish Retail Centre Rankings show Castlebar is the 12th largest retail centre in the Republic of Ireland in terms of retail spend, and 20th on the island of Ireland overall.[3] However, the survey counts many major shopping centres separately from the cities they are situated in. If the spend for several major shopping centres in the Dublin area is included in the Dublin figures, Castlebar becomes the seventh largest retail centre in the Republic, surpassed only by the Republic's five main cities and the town of Tralee.
