Rahugh, Historical parish in Westmeath, Ireland
The civil parish of Rahugh encompasses twelve distinct townlands across 4,987 acres of varied terrain with light soil and sections of bog land.
Saint Aid established a monastery in Rahugh during the sixth century, leaving behind architectural remnants that include two significant earthen fortifications called raths.
The residential community maintains connections through the Tyrrellspass Gaelic Athletic Association team, which represents local sporting traditions in County Westmeath.
Rahugh contains three educational facilities serving 70 students, one Catholic chapel at Little Ross, a Baptist meeting house, and The Hazel Bar and Lounge.
A remarkable ancient rath within the parish served as a burial place for a regional prince, with additional fortified house remains at Ballybroider and Little Ross.
