CRISP Centre Hacketstown

Hacketstown is located in the North East of County Carlow, next to the border of Co. Wicklow and so far east that most of the parish lies within County Wicklow. It has a long and turbulent history, stretching back over some thousand years with the construction of an earthen fort at Eagle Hill. Eagle Hill, the geographic feature that dominates the town, has an unusual shape giving the impression of one small hill sitting on top of another. The local river Dereen is popular with anglers and is a tributary of the River Slaney. Not far away is the Haroldstown Dolmen, indicating that the area was settle in pre-Christian times.
