WHERE DOES the name “cashels” come from

The original site of the company is in an area known as “Cashels”. It is a small townland area near the village of Aghamore, the nearest town being Ballyhaunis in County Mayo in the west of Ireland.

A “cashel” is another term for a ring fort, which was an old circular structure used for housing, livestock or to provide protection. There are approximately 40,000 “cashels” in Ireland, many of them in the west of the country and several located near the factory.

While many ring forts were built from a mixture of stone, clay and mud, the “cashel” was built almost exclusively from stone due to the lack of soil in the more rugged landscape in the west of Ireland.
