Monasterevin
Monasterevin (Mainistir Eimhín in Irish) is a town in County Kildare in the Republic of Ireland. The town, with a population in 2002 of 2,583, lies on the River Barrow and the Grand Canal.
Situated 63 km from Dublin on the main N7 Dublin to Limerick road, Monasterevin has been relieved of much through traffic by the opening in 2004 of a new section of the M7 motorway bypassing the town. Monasterevin is well connected by rail, with trains from Dublin to the southwest (Cork, Limerick, and Tralee) and west (Galway and Mayo) all serving the town.
