Moone

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Moone is a small village in the south of Co. Kildare, Ireland. It is on the N9 road about 80 km south of Dublin. It is quite a small village, with only a few hundred inhabitants, a church, a primary school, one shop and a small community centre. There is also pub called the Moone High Cross Inn.[1]

The closest village to Moone is Timolin, about 1 km to the north. The current county plan is for joint development of Moone and Timolin.

Moone's most famous attribute would be its High Cross, dating from the 7th century. The High Cross can be found about 1 km from Moone along the road to Athy in the remains of an old abbey believed to be established by Saint Colmcille. A good picture and description of the High Cross can be found here.

The name Moone comes from the Gaelic "Maen Colmcille" which means "Colmcille's property".
