Welcome To Drumlish.

Mill in DrumlishDrumlish is a large picturesque village in North County Longford. The village of Drumlish is west of a ridge of low hills running north-eastwards from Newtownforbes to Arva in County Cavan. It is close to the Cavan and Leitrim Borders and is 11 kilometres from Longford Town. Drumlish Parish extends from the eastern side of the parish of Clonguish to a short distance beyond the village of Ballinamuck. The area is predominantly rural with lakes and unspoiled landscape.

The village is the starting point for the climb of Cairn Hill. It is a pleasant climb and there are fine views from the summit, which is crowned by a cairn.

Drumlish is home to some of Ireland's country and music legends and the song 'The Marquee in Drumlish' commerates the great music festival held in the town in the early 1970's. The festival was revived in 2007.
