The larger towns of Dundalk and Drogheda are both 20 km away. Knockabbey is only a 10 minute drive from the M1 Motorway and Dublin is within a one hour drive to the city centre. History Knockabbey Castle and gardens reflect the constantly changing fortunes of its owners for more than six centuries. The original dwelling which dates back to 1399 was built for the Bellew Family and then known as Thomastown Castle. It was a simple square tower house; however, reflecting their prestige and position, the Bellews enlarged the Castle in 1650 with a six bay, three storey Queen Anne extension.

OPW and LA staff LA comments Inny Abbeyshrule - Potentially due to new development – twenty houses. Questioned the extent shown in the PFRA maps. Possibly not the experience but not to be ruled out. Should be compared to 2009 flood extent. Farmland. Meeting / discussion summary comments: OPW comments • There are no flood risk issues that they are aware of. • The land downstream is low and acts as floodplain. • New houses near the church may be at risk. • The airfield is not known to be at significant risk. LA comments • Farmland flooded during the November 2009 event. • A public water supply intake is located upstream of the village; this is the source for the regional water supply. • The airfield was just about operational during the 2009 floods.
