Arklow Tidy Towns

Arklow Tidy Towns Arklow Tidy Towns is a voluntary organisation set up to improve the town of Arklow Co Wicklow

Arklow (from the old Norse Arnkell-lág "meadow of Arnkell"— called in Irish: An tInbhear Mór, meaning "The great estuary"), also known as Inbhear Dé from the Avonmore River’s older name Abhainn Dé, is a historic town located in County Wicklow on the east coast of the country. Founded by the Vikings in the ninth century, Arklow was the site of one of the bloodiest battles of the 1798 rebellion. Ark

low is situated at the mouth of the River Avoca (formerly Avonmore), the longest river entirely within County Wicklow. The town is divided by the river, which is crossed by the Nineteen Arches Bridge, a stone arch bridge linking the south or main part of the town with the north part, called Ferrybank. The Nineteen Arches bridge is the longest hand made stone bridge in Ireland and is considered a famous landmark. The plaque which is situated on the south end of the bridge is testimony to this
Arklow's proximity to Dublin which is approximately 80kms and its consequent attractiveness to commuters has led to much expansion in recent years.
