why is the hurling team called SOUTH DOWN? There doesn't appear to be a Down or North Down or Going Down or Let Down or Feeling Down or Lowered Down (maybe if they were relegated)???????

It is made up of players from South Down who cannot make the Down senior panel. It is a good idea to help improve the standard in the county. Much the same as Fingal in Dublin.

There are 14,000 voters in South Leitrim and 12,000 in North Leitrm. Don't know what the actual populations are.
For electoral purposes leitrim village, Keshcarrigan, Drumshanbo and Aghacashel and Drumcong are in North Leitrim.


Dowra is in co.Cavan, not Leitrim

Some of Dowra is in Leitrim.

Charlotted, yer really showin yer ignorance now. None of Dowra is in Leitrim, it's Cavan through and through, ask any Dowra man! Also, ye call North Leitrim "Bandit Country", but need i remind you where Derrada Wood is?!!

stpat (Leitrim) - Posts: 26 - 07/02/2011 21:19:31    862810

where is Derada Wood? Ive never heard of it. And as for Dowra how would a normal person know where it is. Its a place ive heard off but dont know exactly where it is. Its like drumaciaran or drumahair or kinlough ive heard about them places way up north but couldnt tell ya where the are. I get dizzy if i leave the n4

Darragh 'derrada' Wood was an Aughawillan full back of the late 70s and early 80s, never made County butwas an able, no nonsense defender in his day.

was the BR on that team or was he around later?

Dowra is a village close to ballinaglera. The shannon flows through it and the bridge over the shannon in the village marks the border between cavan and leitrim. However the majority of the village is in county cavan.
Derrada woods is outside ballinamore near the cavan border in the parish of drumreilly. It is in the drumreilly lower (or as it is known as - aughawillan) part of the parish i think
