Rathvilly

Rathvilly (Irish: Ráth Bhile, meaning 'ringfort of the trees')[2][3] is a village, civil parish and townland in County Carlow, Ireland.

[2] In the centre of the village, there is a statue dedicated to Kevin Barry, an 18-year-old who was executed for his part in the Irish War of Independence on 1 November 1920.

[4] In February 1990, a two-year-old purebred Charolais heifer named 'Dreamer', was found to have survived five months without water whilst trapped between bales of hay in a local farmer's hayshed.

[5] The heifer lost four hundredweight in weight during her five-month ordeal but, when found, was standing up, supple, was not emaciated, did not have sunken eyes, and did not have any sores or injuries.

The teams play in green and gold jerseys and have won the Carlow Senior Football Championship 9 times in their history.
