Cratloe
Cratloe (Irish: An Chreatalach) is a small village (its population in 2002 was 656) in County Clare, Ireland, situated between Limerick City and Ennis. The Cratloe Woods, located on the overlooking hillside, are a popular recreational park and forestry area. Garranon Oak Wood, in the grounds of Cratloe Wood House , provided the timbers for the roof of London's Westminster Hall.
Cratloe is located just off the N18 road from Limerick to Ennis. The railway line from Limerick to Ennis also passes by the village – although the station remains closed at present.
