Dromahair (Irish: Droim Dhá Thiar, meaning 'ridge of (the) two demons')[2] is a village in County Leitrim, Ireland.
Dromahair lies in the hilly north west of County Leitrim amid some stunning unspoiled natural landscapes.
Much of Dromahair was modelled on a village in Somerset by the Earl of Leitrim, and the central streetscape still follows the pattern set down by him.
In 1798 General Humbert led Irish and French forces to defeat the British at battles in Castlebar and at Carricknagat near Collooney.
The building has been subject to vandalism and theft since its closure, the lead has been removed from the roof, and the valuable paintings stolen.
[6] Through at least the 19th and 20th centuries, four annual fairs were held at Dromahair on- 1 January, 15 June, 21 July, and 31 October (or 1 November).
Tourist attractions include Creevelea Abbey, the Tour De Humbert Cycling Trail (which passes through the village),[9] Ard Nahoo Health Farm, Parke's Castle situated beside Lough Gill on the Sligo-Dromahair road (R286, 5 km (3 mi) NW of the village) and the Wild Rose Waterbus which offers tours of Lough Gill between Sligo and Parke's Castle.
