A Description Of Monaghan

County Monaghan is remarkable for the great number of its little hills. Only a few rise higher than 1,000 feet, but from many points there are good views over the well - tilled, undulating countryside with its lakes set here and there between the hills. Like county Cavan, Monaghan is well known to the coarse fishing enthusiast. Monaghan formed part of the ancient territory of Oriel, and was known as the MacMahon country because of the dominance of that powerful clan.
