Monaghan County Council - County Monaghan's Local Authority
Description
County Monaghan is one of the three Ulster counties in the Republic of Ireland and the most northerly inland county in the country. Furthermore, some 90% of the county is located within 10 miles of the border with Northern Ireland.
County Monaghan has a land area of 500 square miles and a population of 52,593 persons. The countryside is characterised by rolling hills or drumlins with no major mountain ranges or rivers. The county is almost unique in that it has no major towns, while having five small towns with separate Town Councils
Traditionally agriculture has been the backbone of the economy and food production is still a very important sector. Other important sectors have been the furniture and engineering business and in recent years much of the work force is employed in the poultry sector, mushroom production and transportation.
