County Roscommon (in Irish it is Contae Ros Comáin) is located in the West of Ireland and the province of Connacht. The county is named after the town of Roscommon, which comes from the Irish 'Ros' meaning a wooded, gentle height and 'Comán', the name of the founder, first abbot and bishop.
Roscommon is the home of Celtic Warrior Queen Maeve, and the seat of noble Gaelic Kingship in the West of Ireland for over a thousand years. County Roscommon is a geologically diverse place with many landscapes, areas and sites treasured by both natives and visitors. The bedrock foundation, with hundreds of millions of years in its formation and shaping, and the more recent history of geomorphological processes such as limestone solution and scouring by glaciers, are what has created that underlying geodiversity. What this means is that there is a wealth of fine Irish limestone in this county, patiently waiting to be carved! |
