CLOONLOO

The web site covers Cloonloo and surrounding townlands and part of Lough Gara. It is a rural area where the main occupation is small part time farming, there are few full time farmers many of the residents work in local towns, such as Gurteen, Sligo, Boyle, and Carrick-on-Shannon which are all within easy driving distance. It is an area which has suffered greatly from emigration over the years and is sparkly populated. In recent times there has been a large number of new houses built unfortunately many are vacant most of the time as their occupiers work to pay large mortgages... Cloonloo Development 2000 Ltd was formed in 1999 when Cloonloo Development Association disbanded. Some of our members were involved in that group which had been in operation for approximately 15 years. At present we have eight members. Others from the community get involved when we are running events. We are a limited company, Co.Reg. No. 331629 and we obtained charitable status in early 2013.
