It lies at the foot of Corry Mountain just north of Lough Allen. Drumkeerin is situated in drumlin hills northwest of Lough Allen, a lake on the Shannon. The Drumkeerin Development Association was formed in the early 1970s. In 1986, Drumkeerin Community Council was established to address the economic development of the village. In 1992, the Drumkeerin Tourist and Development Company was incorporated in order to effect plans of the Community Council. The main thrust of the plan was the establishment of a number of community enterprise workshop units. Drumkeerin Gaa Club (CLG Droim Caorthainn) was founded in 1933 and represents the parish area of Inishmagrath. The club provides an important sporting and social focus in the community.[2] Demographics
