Monaseed (Irish: Móin Na Saighead, meaning 'boggy place of flint arrows') is a small village in north County Wexford.
The small village centre comprises a primary national school (established in 1913), a Catholic church, and a community hall.
[citation needed] The English King James I decreed the plantation of the north of County Wexford with foreigners, clearing out the owners and occupiers of the land.
The subsequent plantation caused a huge displacement of local families, some of whom were transported to Virginia.
Some repairs were carried out in 1965, but by the 1980s it was in a poor condition, and refurbishment took place in 1991.
