Summary[edit]

Description

Drogheda's name derives from the Irish ' Droichead Átha ', meaning ' bridge of the ford ' which refers to the River Boyne on which it stands. Drogheda was granted its charter in 1194 by Hugh de Lacy ( after whom the de Lacy bridge in Drogheda is named ) The Anglo Normans made Drogheda one of their primary strongholds, completing the town walls in 1334 ad. The walled area of the Mediaeval Drogheda enclosed one hundred and thirteen acres, making it one of the largest walled towns of the time.
