History and development

Evidence of ancient settlement in the area includes a Bronze Age urn which was discovered nearby in the 1930s.[2] The remains of a ringfort are also recorded in Shanahoe townland.[3]

Built mainly along the two main approach roads, the village developed as a predominantly linear settlement. Buildings at the village centre include the village church, community hall and national (primary) school. The M7/M8 Motorway Scheme lies to the west of the village.[2]

Education

Scoil Fionntáin Naofa, the local national (primary) school, was built in 1948.[4] As of 2010, there were 74 pupils enrolled in the school.[4]

Sport

The local Gaelic Athletic Association club is Shanahoe GAA, whose pitches are located about 2 km outside the village.[2]

Notable people

  • John Keegan (1816–1849), writer, poet and storyteller, was born in Killeaney near the village of Shanahoe.[5]
