Ardagh (Template:Langx)[1] is a civil parish and townland in County Mayo, located slightly to the southwest of Ballina.[2][3][4]
The parish takes its name from an ancient ecclesiastical site, which was either a church or a small monastery, and is derived from "Ard Achadh", which means high ground.[2] The earliest record of the first church in Ardagh is in an 1198 epistle issued by Pope Innocent 3rd.[5] The parish contains two castles: Deel Castle and Rappa Castle. There is also a community centre, a Gaelic football pitch, three national schools, and a pub.Template:Fact
