a market-town of Ireland, on the right bank of a river of the same name, in the county and 8 miles north by east of Dublin. It is for the most part very meanly built; and has a Gothic church, a Roman Catholic chapel, a small court-house, and an endowed school. There is neither trade nor manufactures, and the place is in a very decaying condition. Here stands one of the remarkable round towers of Ireland, about 80 feet high. Pop. 1294.
